The OWN Project

A nonprofit committed to increasing access to high-quality pelvic floor therapy & doula services in Denver, CO for women in need.

Because holistic healthcare shouldn’t be a luxury.

The OWN Project empowers women through all stages of life by supporting access to pelvic health and other wellness services. We are investing in the future of community health, one person at a time. Our mission is to remove barriers to proactive and preventative care so that current and future generations of women and their families can thrive. We empower women to take ownership of their wellness throughout the lifespan by creating a supportive community and providing holistic, therapeutic interventions.

The OWN Project Impact

  • "Receiving this scholarship has been one of the most meaningful parts of my recovery. After years of difficult healthcare experiences, OWN Your Pelvic Health gave me something I hadn't found elsewhere: skilled care delivered with genuine compassion."

  • "This scholarship didn't just give me access to treatment. It gave me the opportunity to keep healing."

  • "Recovery from complex pelvic health conditions takes time. Donor support made that time possible."

  • "Consistent care is a privilege many people cannot afford. This scholarship turned that privilege into access."

  • "Healing happens through skilled practitioners, but it begins because someone believes your recovery is worth investing in."

  • "The greatest gift wasn't only the treatment. It was knowing I didn't have to choose between my health and my finances."

Why we’re passionate about providing access & information about women’s health care…

Women’s health has long been underfunded, under-researched, and underserved. In the U.S., maternal mortality rates are among the highest in the developed world - especially for Black and Indigenous women.

1 in 3 women have a pelvic floor dysfunction at some point in their lifetime.

Women are taught to ignore pain, downplay symptoms, and accept dysfunction as “normal.”

Women are sexualized but rarely educated - not about pleasure or consent, and certainly not about pelvic health. Most women don’t receive accurate, supportive education.

You can help provide holistic pelvic health support throughout her lifespan, from her first period through post menopause.

  • 50-90% of young women experience painful periods.

  • It takes an average of 7–10 years to receive an endometriosis diagnosis.

  • 1 in 6 couples struggles with infertility. 1 in 3 women has experienced pregnancy loss.

  • 1 in 3 women has experienced sexual violence.

  • 1 in 3 women describe their birth as traumatic.

  • Menstrual and reproductive disorders are associated with increased risk of depression, anxiety, and psychological distress.
