Giving the Gift of a Healthy Birth

The Shifrah and Puah Maternity Center in Mbale, Uganda
2023 WLCJ CONVENTION SPECIAL PROJECT

As Mother’s Day quickly approaches, it reminds us how vital mothers are to their babies and their families. They are the nurturers, the caretakers and the force that keeps everyone healthy. We must support these mothers and mothers-to-be during their most vulnerable time – when they are pregnant. Our thoughts are with these mothers having babies halfway across the world, knowing that we can help them. Send a donation in honor of your mother, daughter, daughter-in-law, granddaughter, niece or friend to show them how important it is to help these mothers.

Here are just a few other examples of what we can help cover with your donations:

$18.00, you can cover a woman’s cost to get an ultrasound during her pregnancy and to have her baby delivered at the Center.
$36.00, you can cover the costs of the sanitary napkins necessary after each delivery for an entire MONTH.
$72.00, you can cover the costs of the laundry service to keep the sheets, towels and gowns clean for each delivery for an entire MONTH
$108.00, you can cover the MONTHLY costs of supplying each mother with three sets of baby outfits and one blanket; otherwise, they only have rags to wrap their baby in.
$126.00, you can cover the costs of mosquito netting and Malaria treatment and medications – Pitocin, iron pills and infusion solutions; for all pregnant women to prevent stillbirths, prematurity births, and poor fetal growth for an entire MONTH

Please let us know what other questions you might have about his project. Your support is essential to ensure these mothers and babies are healthy and provided with all the services and supplies they need.
