Support Us!
There are many ways you can get involved with the Birth Circle! Below are some common ways to support us, and if you have some new ideas, feel free to reach out to us at the contact information listed at the bottom of the page.
Donate!
The Nest is a space that families and babies can feel relaxed and comfortable in to connect and grow. Beyond housing our usual meetings and events, we provide an informal gathering place and access to perinatal care providers. Our goal is to make this a space that feels authentically welcoming to all families at every phase of the journey to and through parenthood. But we can’t do it without your help! Your donations are appreciated and help us continue to provide informative monthly meetings, fun family events and community programming! We also accept donations of secondhand clothing, toys, and items relating to pregnancy and infancy (full list of items can be found on our Facebook). We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, so your contribution is tax-deductible. Please donate via Paypal or Zeffy (linked below), check mailed to The Nest (217 Columbus Rd. Suite 103, Athens, OH 45701), or in-person at events to support our mission. Read more about giving and its impact here.
Volunteer!

The Birth Circle has many opportunities for volunteers, whether it is a one-time event like setting up for the annual Yard Sale, or an on-going commitment such as taking pictures at monthly meetings, coordinating carpools, or helping us update the website. So, whether you can spare one hour or twenty, we can use you! Contact us with the button below or check out our GivePulse to see where your helping hands can fit into our mission!
