Looking for a meaningful gift for your
mum on March 26th? You could make a big difference to mothers in Africa with a
donation of £15 to help Maternity
Worldwide sponsor a safe birth. In return for helping to save a mother’s
life Maternity Worldwide will then send a personalised certificate
of sponsorship direct to your mum.
Maternity Worldwide says: Every minute of every day, a woman dies
from complications related to pregnancy or childbirth. 99% of these deaths occur
in developing countries. In Ethiopia 1 in 7 women die in pregnancy or childbirth
compared to 1 in 19,000 in the UK. The impacts of maternal mortality are
wide-reaching. The family, the community and the economy are affected. An
estimated 1 million young children die shortly after the death of their
mothers.
Astonishing, isn’t it?
