Aspiring Doulas

Scholarships

The Global Doula Project partners with training organizations to offer need-based scholarships to aspiring doulas showing particular promise and passion.

By partnering with training organizations to offer sponsored seats and financial aid, our scholarships help aspiring doulas turn their passion into a career. Selected recipients demonstrate a commitment to improving birth and death for families in their communities.

Available Funding

We partner with organizations to award both full and partial scholarships to complete birth, postpartum, bereavement, or end-of-life doula training courses.

Organizations are assessed based on alignment with our core values - community, sustainability, and justice.

We invite interested organizations to reach out via email.

Do you have a doula story to share?

Whether you are a doula or you’ve experienced the benefits of one, we’d love to hear from you! Please share as much or as little as you like. Our goal is to share more real-life examples to help advocate for doulas, and educate the public on the importance of community support.
