Christine is pregnant and hoping to deliver safely. Although she reports feeling more confident since learning about danger signs and how to avoid health issues during pregnancy from our medical partner, she is concerned about complications during birth, as well as her ability to get her newborn immunized against common illnesses.
Christine and her family are farmers who grow maize, beans, groundnuts, cabbages, and sugarcane for money and to pay for school fees. They are able to barely cover basic necessities but cannot afford the cost of securing a safe delivery.
For only $215, Christine will give birth in a health facility under the care of skilled attendants. This fee also includes pertinent health education about caring for an infant and a well-baby checkup before going home after the birth. Let’s give Christine the safe delivery she hopes for!
