Dear Friends,
We are excited to share recent progress under the Lifesaving Intervention Project in Sardauna Local Government Area, Taraba State.
With your generous donations and fundraising from other sources, in the last quarter, we have extended our project to an additional 10 communities and successfully trained 33 frontline health workers—including nurses, midwives, and community health extension workers—on essential maternal and neonatal health practices. The training emphasized the WHO “6 cleans” during childbirth, infection prevention (particularly sepsis), safe delivery protocols, and emergency referral procedures. Practical sessions ensured participants could confidently apply these skills in real-life settings to save both mothers and their babies.
We also distributed 1,000 clean birth kits across health facilities in those communities to encourage skilled deliveries. Each kit contains sterile gloves, cord clamps, blades, chlorhexidine gel, and clean delivery drapes—critical tools to prevent infections and safeguard mothers and newborns during delivery.
To sustain impact, all health workers were enrolled in our newly developed telehealth App, which enables remote consultation, mentorship, timely referrals, and continuous professional development. This innovation ensures that mothers and babies in even the most remote communities have access to quality, evidence-based care. This app also promotes real-time consultation with obstetric and gynecologists for expert advice and continuous mentorship to the frontline health workers.
Our Next Step – With Your Support
While these achievements mark important progress, the need remains great. Many more health workers still require training, and hundreds of expectant mothers in underserved communities lack access to safe delivery kits.
With your donation, we can:
Train additional frontline health workers.
Provide more clean birth kits to mothers in need.
Expand telemedicine support to reach the most remote communities.
Together, we can save more lives, prevent avoidable deaths, and give mothers and babies a healthy start.
Thank you for standing with us. Your continued generosity powers this mission. Please consider making another donation today to help us reach even more families in need.
