How Simplified Tech & Messaging is Growing Monthly Donors with the Black Coalition for Safe Motherhood

It is Black Philanthropy Month, and I couldn"t think of a better conversation to spotlight this than with two incredible women behind the Black Coalition for Safe Motherhood, Dr. Leslie Farrington and Khadejah Stegall. When it comes to giving birth while Black in America, having advocacy skills can literally save lives. BCFSM’s ACTT framework of “ask questions, claim your space, trust your body, tell your story”, equips birthing people and supporters to speak up in medical settings, reduce communication breakdowns, and secure dignified, safer care. You’ll hear how a Mother’s Day email push brought in their first recurring donor, why you should integrate a monthly ask into everything, and how they offer tangible value to supporters with free monthly workshops. If you’re a small team looking to diversify beyond grants, streamline tools, and grow recurring revenue with focused storytelling, this conversation is a playbook you can borrow today.
