Description

Poverty creates many challenges for mums and babies. Help them overcome these hurdles and thrive, with a gift that supports pre- and post-natal care, volunteer birth attendants and health education.

How your gift helps

This gift will support health projects run by Tearfund’s partners around the world. Thank you for your support.

Chanda (pictured right) lives with her family in a remote village in Pakistan. They faced extreme poverty and instability before Chanda undertook training as a traditional Birth Attendant with Tearfund’s partner, the Diocese of Hyderabad.

Chanda’s purpose has transformed as she travels to nearby villages to support safe deliveries and maternal care. She recalls helping a mother who had previously suffered a miscarriage due to lack of access to maternal health care. With Chanda’s support the mother was able to deliver a healthy baby girl. For Chanda, the baby's first cry symbolizes hope, resilience, and the impact of empowered community health workers.
