Help expand our Neonatal and Maternity Unit

Project update: 9 May 2022

YOU MADE IT HAPPEN! Thanks to your kindness - urgent medical aid and baby supplies will get delivered to those in need in Yonibana very soon.

BUT WE'RE GOING FURTHER. Sierra Leone has the HIGHEST maternal mortality rates in the world. Infant mortality rates are also amongst the highest globally. That's why we need your generosity to expand our unit!

YOUR EXTRA PENNIES will help towards the expansion of our Neonatal and Maternity Unit to decrease infant mortality.

Donate now and let's give hope.

Why not help us share this campaign and reach out to more people.

How you can help

Due to coronavirus, recent events and price hikes, we are struggling to meet the shipping costs to get two containers full of essential supplies delivered. 

Lives are in danger of not receiving critical medication, medical supplies and treatment.

The containers include:

• medical equipment
• medicines
• personal protective equipment (PPE)
• toiletries
• nappies, wet wipes, baby milk
• clothing essentials (socks, underwear, t-shirts, towels and blankets)
• stationery

With your generosity and compassion, we’re aiming to get this delivered as soon as possible to ensure we serve the needs of the community.

Your donation will help us reach our goal. Please do share this with your family, friends and colleagues. 

We really appreciate you taking time out to read about our urgent appeal - act now and save lives!

Any excess donations will be spent on aid and storage costs for additional containers that are in the pipeline.
