Give Today: Improve Health & Dis­rupt Inequity


Help us increase access to Centering group care…

Because every pregnant person, caregiver, infant and child deserves to have access to the highest-quality health care. The Centering group model is shown to improve health outcomes and ensure that every new life begins healthy and with the best chance to thrive.

Your donation allows us to continue the life-changing work of expanding access to Centering to families across the U.S., particularly those in communities where the traditional one-on-one medical visit continues to contribute to unacceptable racial disparities in birth and birthing outcomes. By making a donation today, you become an integral part of our work to improve the health of birthing people, their infants and families, bring joy to the health care experience and build connected, inclusive communities. Thank you for your support!



Choose Your Impact

Your donation drives better outcomes for parents and babies—improving health, transforming care and challenging inequitable systems through our group care model. See how your gift makes a difference below

Supporter

Annu­al Gift: $500 – $999

Your impact will help sus­tain site reten­tion efforts, sup­port onboard­ing for new clin­i­cal learn­ers or coor­di­na­tors and con­tribute to the foun­da­tion­al resources need­ed to keep Cen­ter­ing groups run­ning effec­tive­ly. These ear­ly invest­ments strength­en care teams and con­tribute to increased par­tic­i­pa­tion in Cen­ter­ing visits.

Advocate

Annu­al Gift: $1,000 – $4,999

Your impact will sup­port con­sul­ta­tion ser­vices like Centering365 and Advi­sor Assist, which help sta­bi­lize and sus­tain sites. This lev­el of giv­ing plays a role in increas­ing the num­ber of babies born full term — Cen­ter­ing has been shown to reduce preterm birth rates, with some sites report­ing a 33% decrease.

Champion

Annu­al Gift: $5,000 – $24,999

Your impact will help launch and accred­it new Cen­ter­ing sites, par­tic­u­lar­ly in Fed­er­al­ly Qual­i­fied Health Cen­ters (FQHCs), expand­ing access to care where it’s need­ed most. You’ll also sup­port train­ing for full site teams and help improve billing and cod­ing prac­tices — crit­i­cal to long-term sus­tain­abil­i­ty and growth.

Visionary

Annu­al Gift: $25,000 – $99,999

Your impact will dri­ve sys­temic change by fuel­ing pol­i­cy work that engages Med­ic­aid and pay­ors to adopt group pre­na­tal care as a reim­bursable, sus­tain­able mod­el. These efforts have already con­tributed to state-lev­el pol­i­cy wins and stronger rela­tion­ships with Med­ic­aid lead­er­ship. You’ll also help fund advanced data tools that enhance site per­for­mance and stake­hold­er learning.

Luminary

Annu­al Gift: $100,000+

Your impact will trans­form mater­nal health out­comes across the coun­try by scal­ing CHI’s infra­struc­ture, expand­ing staff capac­i­ty and fuel­ing nation­al strate­gic ini­tia­tives. In just six months, donor sup­port like yours enabled CHI to onboard 10 new team mem­bers and strength­en the back­bone of our oper­a­tions — posi­tion­ing us to reach more fam­i­lies, train more providers and advo­cate for last­ing pol­i­cy reform.
