Dear HOPE Supporter,
Thank you for your continued support of our critical maternal health projects. We have exciting news to announce! Beginning this month, we are embarkng on a new project that will provide 1,000 women with antenatal care, postnatal care, care for her newborn, and all at-risk mothers with safe delivery. All 1,000 women will be invited to give birth at HOPE Hospital, but for those who wish to give birth at home, we will connect them with one of our graduating midwives to ensure she is safe. Mothers having birth at home with a midwife will receive a clean birth kit as well as a device that detects post-partum hemorrhage (PPH) to warn the woman and her midwife that she needs to seek medical attention in the event of PPH. This is a continuation of the project we completed in 2014 where we had provided 500 women with safe antenatal care and deivery, which was extremely successful. This project however encompasses many more services and additional care. All mothers will be throoughly educated on safe pregnancy, delivery and newborn care. Thank you again for making our work possible.
Sincerely,
Ashley Pugh
