Support Anna and Transform the Lives of Pregnant Women in Ukraine: Join Us in Making a Difference

On Sunday, 13th July, our Ayurveda Mother and Infant program (AMI) co-founder, Su Bowerman, and her friends walked 10 kilometers over the beautiful South Downs taking part in a 10K Fitness run with IAHV UK for its projects — not just for fitness, but to raise vital funds for Anna, a dedicated teacher based near Kiev, Ukraine. Anna’s work supports pregnant women naturally through labor and postpartum with deep, compassionate care.

Anna lives just 90 kilometers from Kiev. Last week, for the first time, her own city was hit directly, marking a terrifying escalation in the conflict. Despite these challenges, Anna’s commitment to nurturing women and their unborn children remains unshaken. Previously, with your generosity, we funded support for women giving birth underground during air raids and helped Anna become a certified yoga instructor — valuable tools she uses daily to empower women in crisis.

Now, Anna needs us again.

How You Can Help

We invite you to join Su Bowerman in this challenge — whether by donating, sharing this appeal, or cheering her on during the 10K walk. Every pound you give stretches far beyond what you might imagine, nurturing new life and hope amid uncertainty.

Please donate today and be part of this vital support network for Ukrainian mothers and babies.

Thanks for visiting my page. I am raising funds to support AMI - Ayurveda Mother and Infant.

AMI is an Ayurveda Programme for families - from preconception, pregnancy, birth, and especially post-partum which is practically ignored. New mothers have problems with breastfeeding, weaning, bedtime routines, exhaustion & many other aspects.

Goal of AMI is to set up and train volunteer city-support-teams to involve communities in different aspects, like meal delivery for post-partum, baby massage, mother massage, herbal remedies, & just being there for them as listening ears, caring eyes & helping hands. This is a wonderful service that would allow grandmothers, retired people, & those big of heart to play an important role in the community in conjunction with trained midwives, doulas and other professional health care workers.

We need money to set up the programme & to pay volunteer group leaders. Your generosity & well wishes will help reach out to families which need help!

Thank you!
