“Before the training, managing complications such as heavy bleeding after childbirth, high blood pressure during pregnancy, and newborn resuscitation was challenging. The Helping Mothers Survive and Helping Babies Survive programs helped me gain confidence and practical skills to respond to emergency situations affecting mothers and newborns.”, Theresie Mukabayizere, Head Midwife at Rutongo Hospital.

Through continuous training and mentorship, Health Builders is strengthening the capacity of health workers to improve the quality of care for mothers and newborns in their communities.

“I encourage all pregnant women to attend their ANC visits and undergo ultrasound screening.” Zainabu Uwimana

In Rwamagana District, obstetrical ultrasound services are no longer a privilege. They are now a core part of antenatal care for every pregnant woman.

A simple ultrasound during pregnancy can detect complications early and help protect the lives of mothers and babies.

Through your commitment, health systems are strengthened, infrastructure is improved and equipped, and communities receive better and more reliable services.

Happy Labour Day.

What does good health for mothers really look like?

It is more than surviving childbirth. It is about thriving before, during, and after pregnancy, with access to quality care, timely screening, and the support needed to stay healthy and strong.

For Zainabu, one antenatal visit changed everything. An ultrasound scan revealed a rare but life-threatening problem that could have gone undetected until it was too late.

Because the service was available at her local health center, and because a skilled midwife acted quickly, she was referred in time for emergency care. Today, she is alive to share her story.

Zainabu’s experience reminds us that access to quality maternal health services is not optional. It is lifesaving.
