Every Mom, and every baby, deserves a healthy life, no matter what country they call home, and you can help us achieve this in Torbeck, Haiti. Global Birthing Home Foundation's community-driven model empowers neighbors to care for their own, providing quality maternal healthcare in a sustainable way. Maison de Naissance produces healthy moms, thriving babies and empowered communities through a neighborhood birth center and culturally relevant healthcare.
Maison de Naissance has reached an incredible milestone of 5,000 births (without a single maternal fatality). We are looking forward to another 5,000 healthy births.

We need YOUR help to sustain our work. A very generous anonymous donor will match up to $10,000 of all donations from new donors (and those who have not
given in the past two years). It's a wonderful time to join us in our work. The deadline for matching funds is August 15th.
Resuming deliveries last June requires a new vehicle for the emergency
transport
atio
n of patients and five additional staff members as deliveries increase. We are also starting a program to train traditional birth attendants (Matrones) t
o recommend referrals to Maison de Naissance when complications arise during the care of mothers currently outside of our zone of service.
Please join our family of donors. You are vital for us to continue our success. Feel free to share our matching campaign with potential new donors as well.
Help us celebrate all that we do for babies and families in Haiti at a time when your donation will be matched.
Mesi anpil! (Thank you very much!)
Love,
Dr. Betsy Wickstrom,
Co-founder and Board President
