REACHUP, INC.

Thank you Yahoo and SheKnows! We love seeing MacKenzie Scott's mission to aid in black maternal health going viral -- and we REALLY love being part of this very important conversation. As one of the vetted organizations to receive her / Lever for Change's Yield Giving Award, we are able to further our mission to continue to work for our mamas and babies and reduce infant mortality.

Can you believe it? Our annual Affirming Fatherhood Conference (AFC) is on the horizon! And this year will be better than ever. Our goal? To celebrate fatherhood. 🎉 This will be accomplished via speakers, workshops, and an intimate setting cultivated to encourage bonding and authentic conversations. So mark your calendars 🗓️ for this ONE-DAY event at Children's Board of Hillsborough County on Friday, September 13th! You won’t want to miss this. 💪💪🏿💪🏻💪🏾💪🏼💪🏽 #strongdad #fatherhood #WeAreTheWay

What a great day we had showering our moms-to-be at our community baby shower at Genesis Women’s Center! Huge thanks to all the vendors, doctors and nurses who attended and provided information and goodies GALORE to our mamas. 💛

HUGE thanks to WUSF reporter Stephanie Colombini for interviewing our executive lineup including President/CEO Nicola Bailey, co-founder Dr. Deborah Austin and Clinical Director Dr. Deanna Wathington about REACHUP receiving a $2million gift from MacKenzie Scott’s Yield Giving Open Call, managed by Lever for Change 🙌🙌🏽🙌🏾🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏼

Thank you Children's Board of Hillsborough County for Free Tuesdays at Glazer Children's Museum — we love being a part of it every week!

To say we ❤️ our nurses is an understatement. From pregnancy to postpartum, these women guide new mothers through every part of their journey. Always putting mama and baby’s health FIRST. So this Nurses Appreciation Week we will be commemorating them for all they do. 🙌🙌🏿🙌🏻🙌🏾🙌🏼🙌🏽

Oh what a night! Thank you to all who attended our REACHUP All That Jazz Gala! It was a sizzling night to remember. And as our Board Chairman James N. Wilkerson, Jr. said in his speech "REACHUP is the only organization looking for ZERO infant deaths." And your contributions are what make our mission possible.

This week kicks off a VERY important week for us at REACHUP: Black Maternal Health Week! Recognized April 11-17, it was even recently designated in a proclamation by City of Tampa Mayor Jane Castor 🙏 Why is this a big deal for REACHUP? Because maternal health and preventing infant deaths is what we work for every day! 💛 Stay with us this entire #BlackMaternalHealthWeek as we provide information and tips. 🙌🙌🏿🙌🏻🙌🏾🙌🏽🙌🏼
