Our Charity Project: BirthSpace Giving
That’s why we’ve launched a giving initiative:
each year, we will send free Evia Pools to communities in Africa and beyond, so that more women can experience the safety and comfort of waterbirth.
This project is about more than equipment.
It’s about empowerment, education, and lasting change.
It’s about shifting the ways we bring new souls into the world and how we hold the women bringing them.
At BirthSpace, we believe every mother deserves a safe, gentle, and dignified birth — no matter her life circumstances. Sadly, many underprivileged communities around the world still face unsafe or limited options during childbirth.
We are honored to be working alongside Barbara Harper, founder of Waterbirth International and author of Gentle Birth Choices. Together, we are making sure that each community not only receives pools, but also the skills and training to use them with confidence.
Through this initiative, we hope to create ripples of change — one birth, one family, one community at a time. And you can be part of it. By donating through our website, you can help us send more pools to more women, supporting mothers and midwives in creating safer, gentler beginnings for babies everywhere.
Barbara Harper
In 1988, inspired by her own experience with water in pregnancy and birth, Barbara Harper founded Waterbirth International to share this gentle practice with families worldwide.
What began as a personal passion has grown into a global movement, bringing safer, more compassionate birth options to hospitals, birth centers, and homes across six continents. Over the past three decades, she has trained more than 25,000 birth professionals in over 80 countries, consulted on the design of waterbirth suites, and developed protocols that are now used internationally.
Through her book, Gentle Birth Choices, and ongoing education efforts, she remains committed to supporting the next generation of midwives, doctors, and families
“When we change the way we are born, we change the world.”
