By Vicki Penwell | Executive Director
Thank you for your kind support of this project to help our pregnant women and postpartum mothers, and their families, during these times of hardship in the Philippines. Most of our patients do not own a car, and public transportation became very expensive during the pandemic. In addition, we are still helping families with food as needed, and we drive the new families home in our ambulance after they have recovered from birth.
Jem is a woman who expressed appreciation for the extra care and concern. She says that having a baby during a global pandemic was scary for her, but the midwives at the Mercy In Action sponsored birth center were kind and helpful and kept all safety precautions and protocols to keep her and her baby safe. She says "Maraming Salamat Po", meaning "Thank you very much!"
Please be assured that your donations are making a difference, now more than ever.
Blessings and love from the Mercy In Action team,
Vicki
