Dear Community,

Well, we trained 23 new doulas in June 2025 with your generous donation to us!!! In total, we now have almost 60 volunteer doulas in the Acadiana area helping moms and babies. With your support, these doulas received both online training and in person training at Louisiana HealthCare Connections (LHC), another partner of ours who gives us the space to train.

Mary’s Hands Doulas Continues to grow. We had another training in August 2025 here in Lafayette, and we will continue to have more next year! Stay tuned. Out of all of the cities in Louisiana, our area is the most active for birth work. BIG things are happening here. Because of your generosity, the love is growing.

Sincerely and with love,
Jenny Thompson
