In the developing world, childbirth often ends in tragedy for mothers and babies.

According to the UN's World Health Organization (WHO) one of the leading causes of death is infection, often from unsanitary conditions. These infections and deaths are preventable.

Safe Motherhood Kits enable women in developing countries to give birth safely by providing them with clean and sterile supplies, training on how to prevent infection, and warm clothes to protect their newborns. A kit for one safe birth costs just $25.

To give a Safe Motherhood Kit, go to IMA World Health and designate your $25 contribution for "Maternal and Child Health." Or you call toll-free at 1-877-241-7952.
