Effecting measurable and lasting change to vulnerable populations in Africa; through Health, Educational, Spiritual and Self-sufficiency Programs.
Maternal and Infant MortalityAccording to UNICEF, WHO, and UNFP, the complications of pregnancy and childbirth are a leading cause of death among women of reproductive age in developing countries. Approximately 529,000 women die each year due to maternal causes. For every woman who dies, approximately 20 more suffer injuries, infection, and disabilities related to pregnancy or childbirth. This means that at least 10 million women suffer from this type of damage each year.
The factors that cause maternal morbidity and death also affect the survival chances of the fetus and newborn, leading to an estimated 8 million infant deaths each year (over half of which are fetal) occurring just before or during delivery or within the first week of life.
Please join Love in Motion-Global as we seek to decrease infant and maternal mortality and improve the health of women and babies everywhere!
Creating Healthy Communities
The dream of dramatic decreases in infant and maternal mortality will never become a reality until communities are healthy, sustainable, and economically viable. For this reason, Love in Motion-Global is dedicated to promoting community-based solutions to nutrition and hunger problems, orphan rehabilitation and sexual and reproductive health issues.
Moreover, Love in Motion-Global believes that no single area of development is more important to poverty alleviation and economic stimulation than education. Our aim is to provide resources for basic education, improve access to higher education, educate and train institutional leaders and managers, and promote gender equality in the poorest reaches of the world.
