15% of all pregnancies have complications, but in developing countries they can be fatal. Emergency medical care is often unavailable. As a result, adolescent girls are at the highest risk of death due to complications during pregnancy worldwide.
At 15, Roseline is high-risk. Her baby is due in June, and she is excited but nervous about becoming a mother. She wants to make sure she is prepared. For $215, Lwala Community Alliance can help by providing her with pre-natal care, a safe delivery, and post-delivery checkups for her and her baby.
Roseline left school for her pregnancy, but she tells Lwala “I pray that I will enroll back into school and begin secondary education. I also hope my child will be educated in the future.” Let’s help her have a happy and healthy pregnancy so she can accomplish her dreams!
