Continuing to Save Women & Children in Nigeria

By Afam Onyema | Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer

Our network of five solar-powered maternal and family centers in southeast Nigeria remain extremely busy as they serve hundreds of poor and vulnerable women and children every day.  We focus on maternal healthcare, safe delivery of healthy babies, infant and child vaccinations, pharmacy utilization, and the training of young nurses, midwives and traditional birth attendants.  We also provide crucial primary and preventative care services for men.  This year, our central goal remains the expansion our Robin & Estelle Clarke Center in order to better accommodate the intense overflow of patients who visit the clinic for care.

As we have done since 2014, we continue to screen and treat hundreds of vulnerable pregnant women for anemia every month, with the latest model of Pronto screening devices put into the field last year. We also continue to provide safe delivery "mama kits" to over two dozen rural clinics in Nigeria.
