BORN Cooperative Springs to Life! Celebrate with us April 19th.

BORN Co-operative is celebrating its recent incorporation by hosting a family friendly evening on Saturday, April 19 starting at 5:30 PM. The evening will consist of a short meeting (AGM) and information session about BORN Co-operative's continuing efforts to promote midwifery, doula care and family centred maternity on PEI. BORN, in cooperation with Women's Network and with financial assistance from the Co-operative Secretariat CDI Research and Innovation funding, has just completed a project looking at the integration of midwives into the PEI Healthcare System and the establishment of a birthing centre on PEI. Michelle MacCallum, Executive Director of Women's Network will be speaking about the project. We are also having a potluck dinner followed by acoustic music featuring The Creaky Chair Gang (Gary Torlone, Marcus Lutterman and Ian Forgeron). Please feel free to bring along an instrument and share a song.

BORN Co-operative will be selling shares in the co-op during the evening with limited edition share certificates featuring artwork by Michelle MacCallum. The cost of one share is $50.00. Please come ready to purchase a share and invest in the future of a birthing centre co-operative on PEI.

The celebration is being held at St. Paul's Anglican Church Hall on Richmond Street in Charlottetown on Saturday, April 19 and begins at 5:30 PM. Everyone is welcome. For further information, please contact Sandy Nicholson, 658-2798, doula[@]isn.net or www.born-pei.ca.
