Around 300,000 women and 3 million newborns die each year from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. Most of these deaths occur in developing countries. We partner with local organisations, governments and health service providers who receive and distribute Birthing Kits to vulnerable women to help enable a clean and safer birthing environment. Each kit contains: gauze, plastic sheet, soap, cord ties, sterile blade and latex gloves. Every $3 donated contributes one birthing kit.
