This Mother's Day, Change a Mother's Life

A group of local moms gathered at the Rumson home of Jean Lee on Thursday to support the efforts of Little Silver's Dr. Nina Seigelstein, who is spearheading an effort to build a maternity clinic in Sierra Leone to serve countless mothers and children.

In Honor of Mother’s Day On Mother’s Day, we shower our mothers with cards, flowers and gifts.  This Mother’s Day you have a chance to do something extraordinary-by donating to One Women’s Health.  With your donation you actively contribute to the building of a Maternity Ward at Holy Spirit Hospital in Makeni-and ultimately save the life of many mothers and their children.

Contribute to Maternal Health and Safety we’ve seen the tragic consequences of a lack of access to a proper obstetrical facility over and over again, --young women with ruptured uteri hemorrhaging and close to death, their infants already dead…women with debilitating obstetrical fistulas from prolonged labors…pregnant women septic and dying from infection.

100% of Donations Guaranteed to Benefit Mothers By contributing toward the construction of the Maternity Ward you are making a concrete and direct difference—assisting in making women’s and children’s health a lasting priority in Sierra Leone.  And importantly our all-volunteer staff at One World Women’s Health guarantees that 100% of your tax-deductible donation goes directly to the benefit of these mothers alone and not for administrative overhead.
