When Birth Becomes
a Risk for Mothers and Babies
Every day, around the world, 800 women die from preventable causes during pregnancy and childbirth. In Sierra Leone, the reality is devastating: 3 mothers and 34 newborn babies die – every single day. Yet most of these deaths could be prevented – with trained midwives and proper care. That’s why Hawa’s Hope exists: to improve birth outcomes for mothers and their babies.
One Small Gift - A Lifetime of Impact
A safe birth doesn’t cost much – but it changes everything. Your donation helps train local midwives and provide life-saving care for mothers and babies.

Changing Lives –
One Birth at a Time
Hawa’s Hope began with a shared dream between two nurses: to stop preventable maternal deaths in Sierra Leone. Through education, mentorship, and deep partnerships, we’re creating real change.
Together with local clinics, birthing centers, and midwifery schools, we’re building a future where every woman and every baby receives skilled, compassionate care – no matter where they live.
