This is based on my own experience. We have been rejected in many hospitals in the Philippines to confine my grandma in a tertiary hospital due to brain injury. She's been rejected because of lack of money. Now I want to support a local nonprofit that helps homeless, elderly people and low-income people who can't afford hospitalization.

Mothers and babies die unnecessarily during childbirth in the Philippines because 50% of the poorest women do not have money to pay a skilled birth attendant. Mercy In Action midwives provide free childbirth services including kind, evidence-based prenatal, labor and delivery, postpartum and newborn care, as well as vitamins, anti-hemorrhage drugs, and immunizations for poor malnourished women, resulting in a maternal and neonatal mortality rate 4-times better than the country of the Philippines progress report
