Irine is an 18-year-old newlywed who is pregnant with her first baby. She is experiencing severe pregnancy symptoms, leaving her nauseous and weak.
99% of all maternal deaths worldwide occur in developing countries, mostly because women lack access to basic maternal healthcare. Delivery under the supervision of a skilled birth attendant is the most critical intervention for safe motherhood, but Irine cannot afford to give birth in a health facility on her own.
Irine dreams of opening a business one day so that she can afford to support her family and care for her new baby. Let’s wish this soon-to-be new mother well and raise $215 for her medical expenses.
