Lavine’s dream is to finish school and raise an educated family. She is about to give birth to her first child, and to prepare, she participated in a maternal health program where she learned about the importance of good hygiene and staying healthy during pregnancy.
As a result of what Lavine learned in the maternal health program, she wants to deliver in a hospital with a skilled birth attendant. Most maternal deaths in developing countries could be prevented if more women had access to basic maternal care.
We can help by funding Lavine’s safe delivery at Lwala Community Hospital!
