Supporting Healthy Families

Direct Relief Women (DRW) is a community of volunteers that supports Direct Relief's maternal and child health programs. Since 2009, DRW has organized annual educational events, assembled thousands of care packs for women, and fundraised to ensure healthy babies are delivered to healthy mothers in vulnerable areas around the world.

Each year, more than 300,000 women die from complications during pregnancy or childbirth. Direct Relief’s humanitarian health efforts place particular emphasis on protecting women and babies by supporting healthy pregnancies through distribution of prenatal vitamins, equipping midwives, expanding emergency obstetric care, and expanding knowledge and access to life-changing obstetric fistula repair surgeries.

100% of your donation will be designated to support these efforts. Thank you for your support!
