SUMMARY:Dining for Women -  Safeguarding Maternal and Infant Health: Myanmar
DESCRIPTION:The West Grove Chapter of Dining for Women encourages men and women to participate. It is through the larger dialogue that change comes about. We meet on the third Sunday of each month @ 5:30 p.m. This gathering will be on July 19. The Chapter provides place settings and beverages and participants are asked to bring a ‘lite fare’ dish to share. Donations will be collected for the organization below. Please join us and invite a friend (or two!). \nThe mission of “Dining for Women” is… “Through collective giving circles\, Dining for Women inspires\, educates and engages people to invest in grassroots programs that make a meaningful difference for women and girls living in extreme poverty in developing countries.” (read this post for more information) \nMission of Muditar: Muditar helps poor\, under-served\, Pa-O tribal villages in Southern Shan State\, Myanmar\, become self-sufficient\, thriving communities using a collaborative model for sustainable development. \nProgram Summary • Muditar will train and supervise 60 women (five per village) as village health educators to facilitate a series of three safe motherhood workshops for 1\,277 women to increase their knowledge and practice of healthy reproductive behavior\, such as family planning\, prenatal and postnatal care\, safe delivery options\, and better infant care such as good nutrition\, breastfeeding\, immunizations\, and monthly growth monitoring. • Village women will have local resources for continued support with reproductive issues. • The health educators and an auxiliary midwife (trained through a related Muditar program)\, will provide consultation\, affordable access to contraceptives\, skilled delivery support\, antenatal care\, and infant care. Village women will have a forum to discuss very personal issues such as contraception use\, family planning\, empowerment\, finances\, and future hopes. \nWhy We Love This Project: We love the focus on a marginalized group with high needs. Muditar has had significant success working with various marginalized communities in Myanmar.

SUMMARY:Meetings Converge for Quarterly Meeting\, April 19
DESCRIPTION:Today is our opportunity to Gather as Friends\, who even in our differences seek the same Spirit. The topic for this gathering is:  \nLiving into Friends’ Testimonies — how a small group of Quakers made a big difference recently\, and how we can do the same. \nWest Grove MM invites Friends from throughout the Quarter to join them for Worship at 10 am\, followed by a discussion on Living our Friends’ Testimonies\, led by Gail Newbold. Gail is one of the founders of EQAT (Earth Quaker Action Team)\, a small group of Friends who felt led to respond to uphold the testimony on stewardship of the environment\, and channeled their leading through social activism that has produced real results. We gather to celebrate this success\, as well as learn ways – small and large – we can also “walk the walk”\, living our testimonies as Friends.   \nA simple meal of soup will be provided\, but Friends are invited (and encouraged!) to bring a side or dessert to share. \nThe Children’s Program will begin with Worship and end when lunch is served. \nMeeting for Worship with attention to Western Quarter’s business will follow lunch\, at 1 pm. \nSchedule:\n9:30 am     Coffee & tea \n10 am         Meeting for Worship — Children’s program starts\n11 am         Discussion\n12:15          Lunch (children join their families)\n1 pm          Meeting for Business  — see Agenda here  Draft minutes from last meeting here\n \nClick here for pdf of event flyer
