First Outreach in 2021 – Bariga Outreach
March 27, 2021
On March 27th, We kicked off our first outreach of the year in Ago Egun community, Bariga Lagos Nigeria.
A quick thank you for your support towards our new nutrition initiative.
The program started with prenatal and post natal education for the pregnant women and nursing mothers.
We had nutritionists on ground who educated the women on proper ways to feed themselves and their babies. Their weight was also checked to endure no one was underweight and general health check was done.
The malnourished children and women were also screened and some of them will become beneficiaries of our new nutrition initiative.
In addition to these, we gave the women
– mosquito nets to prevent malaria.
– face masks to protect them against COVID-19.
– baby care products for new moms
– birth kits for pregnant women. This kit ensures that they have a safe and healthy delivery.
– vitamins for pregnant women and babies.
We had 60 beneficiaries from the community, they included pregnant women, children and nursing mothers.
As we continue to increase our initiatives, the goal remains to reduce maternal and new born mortality in Nigeria.
We appreciate our sponsors and volunteers for their unending support.
If you are moved by what we do, please reach out to us for donations. Thank you
