Why Sponsor Kindred Connection
Kindred Connection is a community directory and collaboration hub for perinatal services, connecting families to trusted local professionals, mutual aid like Joan’s Closet, and education. Your support keeps our listings accessible, our programs free or low cost, and our mutual aid moving.
Many of our affiliates are solo practitioners, often providing services at reduced rates to make care accessible. Our goal is to ease the cost of membership for small practices by funding Kindred Connection through community sponsorships.

Sponsorship Questions
Is my sponsorship tax-deductible?
Kindred Connection Network, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Because sponsorships include recognition, please talk with your tax professional about how to treat yours.
Can my organization pay by ACH or check?
Yes. We accept ACH, check, or card, and we’ll send an invoice and W-9 on request.
Do you accept in-kind donations?
Yes, especially venue space, event printing, and new or gently used maternity and infant items for Joan’s Closet when it reopens.
How do you keep sponsorship inclusive and accessible?
We commit to inclusive imagery and language, alt text for sponsor logos, readable contrast, and captions at events whenever possible.
