🩷 Dr. Janell Green-Smith was a nurse midwife in upstate South Carolina who passed due to complications surrounding childbirth. To say that we are all devastated is an understatement.

🩷Even if you are not able to donate, please keep the Smith family in your prayers.

01/04/2026

We remember and honor Dr. Janell Green Smith, a certified nurse midwife, maternal health advocate, and powerful voice in the fight against the inequities that continue to harm Black birthing people.

Dr. Janell dedicated her life’s work to protecting mothers and babies. She fiercely advocated for safer, more equitable maternal care for Black women. She challenged the system boldly and showed up for her community with intention and love.

Tragically, while pregnant with her first child, Dr. Janell passed away during her own childbirth experience. A reality that should never happen!

She leaves behind her loving husband and her newborn baby. A GoFundMe has been established to support Dr. Janell’s family and memorial. The link can be found in our bio. Please give if you are able, share widely, and hold her family close in your thoughts and prayers.

As we mourn this unimaginable loss, we also recommit ourselves to continuing the work Dr. Janell so passionately carried forward. We demand accountability, equity, and dignity in maternal healthcare. Saying her name matters. Sharing her story matters. Changing the systems that failed her matters.

Rest in power, Dr. Janell Green Smith. Your legacy lives on.

🌟 Today is the day! It's CLIMB DAY 🌟

This afternoon, our community comes together for the 3rd Annual Climb – Columbia, SC. What began as a dream to bring awareness to perinatal mental health has grown into a movement of hope, healing, and connection.

Because of your generosity, we’ve already raised $7,675 — surpassing our $5,000 goal. Every dollar means more families will have access to the support and resources they need and deserve.

But today isn’t just about fundraising. It’s about showing every parent who has ever struggled that they are not alone, not to blame, and that with help, healing is possible. 💙

When we climb together, we create light in the darkness. We remind one another that even the heaviest steps are easier when taken side by side.

Thank you for walking, donating, supporting, and believing in this mission. Let’s climb together — for awareness, for hope, for families everywhere. 💛

🌟 We’re just days away from the 3rd Annual Climb – Columbia, SC! 🌟

Want to help us make this family-friendly event even more fun and welcoming? We’ve created an Amazon wishlist with last-minute items like bubbles, chalk, snacks, and supplies to keep kids engaged and our event running smoothly.

When you purchase from the wishlist, your gift will be considered an in-kind donation to The Climb. These contributions directly support families at the event and help us spread awareness about perinatal mental health in our community.

Every little bit makes a difference — thank you for climbing with us! 💫

🎉 We did it!! Because of YOU, we not only met our fundraising goal of $5,000… we’ve exceeded it and are now at $5,875! 💙

With 11 days left until The Climb, let’s keep the momentum going. Every dollar raised goes directly to supporting families through Postpartum Support International and helping parents know they are not alone.

Let’s see how far we can go together — will you help us push even higher before September 27? 🌟
