Maternity Care Coalition Happy Hour

Posted by on May 03, 2010

Maternity Care Coalition, a nonprofit serving low income pregnant and parenting women in the Philadelphia area, is putting on their first happy hour!  Tuesday May 4th from 5-8pm at Fergie’s Pub, located at 1214 Sansom Street.

A $5 donation gets you $1 off all drinks from 5-8 pm in the upstairs lounge. This donation automatically enters you into a raffle as well!

We will be highlighting our MOMobile Program at Riverside Correctional Facility, recently featured in the BBC. Follow the link below to see the story:

The MOMobile at Riverside is a support program for women in prison who are pregnant or mothers of very young children.  MCC was part of a coalition which advocated to end shackling of incarcerated women during childbirth in Philadelphia and the coalition is now working to end this practice statewide.

Fergie’s famous pub trivia game, Quizzo, starts at 9 pm, so feel free to stick around and play after the happy hour.
