SafeHands’ new brand partnership with Essina Wholefoods will promote maternal nutrition in Amhara.

Safe motherhood brings mothers a safe and healthy newborn

For the past 16 years, we’ve seen the impact they have on the lives of women, families, and communities around the world.

“Maternity waiting homes make childbirth safer by making sure you have the caring hands of a midwife, near no matter what time you go into labour.” This is the message broadcast across the radio airwaves in Amhara, Ethiopia.

“I came here to receive support and reduce any birth risks including bleeding.” explains 35 year old and new mother Haymanot.

In Ethiopia, our project “Labour at the Last Mile” has changed lives by providing pregnant women in hard-to-reach areas with safe motherhood information and by building community support.
