Childbirth should be a joy

 

Yet for many women around the world, childbirth is a death sentence.

Roughly every two minutes, a woman dies somewhere in the world for no other reason than because she was pregnant. For her family pregnancy and childbirth bring tragedy, not joy. 

Health Volunteers International is working to change this. 

Will you help us?

Our Work

Access to health care is a fundamental human right that shouldn't be determined by luck based on where you happened to be born.
