About Maternity Foundation

Every other minute, a woman dies of causes related to pregnancy or childbirth. Every seventh second, a newborn suffers the same fate. Maternity Foundation works to ensure safer births for women and newborns – everywhere. 

That is why Maternity Foundation is building midwifery knowledge and skills among healthcare professionals in low-resource areas.

Join us in making a difference.
