Gifting a Safe Birth

Did you know that as little as 50 SEK (4 euros) can reduce infection-related neonatal mortality by up to 40% in one part of the world where 3 out of every 100 babies born die during their first month of life? You are probably asking yourself how?? Well thanks to the use of birth kits each costing around 50 SEK will provide all the sterile material needed to perform a delivery safely, both for mother and child.

SOGH has been a supporting partner of the works of our amazing colleagues at UDHA (Uganda Development and Health Associates), since the start of the Mama & Family Project in 2014.

This holiday season we ask you to join us in supporting the Mama & Family Project and gift safe childbirth to pregnant women in a rural area of South-East Uganda. Your donation will support the purchase of birth kits - last year we were able to purchase 240 kits, how many will you help us to get this year?

Who we are:

Swedish Organization for Global Health (SOGH) is a Swedish non-profit and non-governmental organization comprised of students and young professionals who share a passion to contribute to global health through evidence-based action.

Together with our local and international partners, we engage in conversations with local communities to co-develop projects that bring concrete positive change and take environmental and economic sustainability into account. While supporting projects both in Sweden and in low-income countries, we use our virtual and physical platforms to bring awareness about some of the most neglected health topics, such as women’s reproductive health.
