SUPPORTING PREGNANT WOMEN TO ACCESS PRE/POST NATAL CARE also OFFERS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR OTHER WOMEN TO GAIN EMPLOYMENT AS CARE WORKERS

Benefit for vulnerable Mums and Newborns - Most of the pregnant women accessing our program, face difficulties in accessing maternal healthcare, some of the major issues include understanding the basic clinical processes as well as the information given at the hospital, they also experience difficulties expressing themselves to health professionals during hospital visits.

Benefit for Community CARE WORKERS: Economic development and participation

• Empowering women in the economy and closing gender gaps in the world of work are key to achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 5, to achieve gender equality, and Goal 8, to promote full and productive employment and decent work for all; also Goal 1 on ending poverty, Goal 2 on food security, Goal 3 on ensuring health and Goal 10 on reducing inequalities.

• When more women work, economies grow. Women’s economic empowerment boosts productivity, increases economic diversification and income equality in addition to other positive development outcomes (www.unwomen.org/en/what-we-do/economic-empowerment/facts-and-figures)

We aim to raise money that will enable us to provide work for more women as care/support workers. 1 care worker for every 5 vulnerable women and newborns ( Support our 1 for 5 campaign by donating)
