Spare Clothes to Sanitary Supplies.
Sara. A mother of seven, pregnant with her eighth. For some of her previous pregnancies, she would go to the hospital fully dilated with some spare clothes to be used to catch the baby. On those occasions, she would also hemorrhage because the doctors didn’t have the supplies they needed to help her.
On our most recent trip to Uganda, we were able to give Sara a Mama Kit with all the medical supplies she needs for a clean, safe, and dignifying birthing experience. It’s amazing to think how far $7—the cost of one Mama Kit—can go. A Mama Kit not only impacts the mother’s life, but the child’s as well. I’m grateful for donors and overseas partners who see the worth in getting supplies into mothers’ hands.
