Maternal health is a report card for the strength of a health system. That's because helping mothers survive pregnancy and childbirth requires every aspect of a health system to function, from home visits to referral networks, and from preventative checkups to surgical facilities. In our efforts to reduce maternal mortality, we strengthen every aspect of a given health system.

By this report card, the world is failing to protect mothers—especially those who live in countries that have been impoverished by centuries of extraction and injustice. Every day, more than 800 women die from complications related to pregnancy or childbirth, and most of those deaths are entirely preventable.

Around the world, we partner with ministries of health to improve health systems on behalf of women and their families. And across rural, underserved communities, we deliver comprehensive women’s and maternal health care to not only save lives, but also promote the right to health, safety, and autonomy among those marginalized by gender.

Childbirth should be something to celebrate, not to fear. Be there with the mothers we serve. Every step of the way.

Start a monthly partnership before Mother’s Day and your first three monthly donations will be matched.
