Healthy Mums & Babies

Healthy Mums & Babies

$50


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

By purchasing this gift, you are supporting health projects run by Tearfund’s partners around the world. Thank you for your support.

Access to good nutrition and a safe and healthy environment in the early years of development makes a vital difference.

In Phongsaly, a mountainous region of northern Laos, Tearfund’s partner World Renew Laos is helping babies to enjoy a strong start to life. Community health volunteers, trained by World Renew, support young mothers like Hue Ja with antenatal care, education on mother and child nutrition, and access to health facilities. With confidence and care, empowered women go on to encourage other expectant mothers with the knowledge and resources that have made a life-giving difference to their families.
