Saving Maternal & Infant Lives

Dear HOPE Friends,


I am beyond thrilled to debut our latest 100% Zakat-eligible project by which you can earn rewards and save lives!*


Consider the dire reality in Pakistan with regards to maternal and infant health:


• A 2018 UNICEF report revealed that Pakistan has the highest Infant Mortality Rate in the world – newborns here face a one in 22 chance of dying within a month of birth


• Pakistan has a Maternal Mortality Rate of 127/100,000 which accounts for 28 percent of the global total


• Every 37 minutes, one woman dies giving birth in Pakistan (14,000 woman every year)


The good news is that 80% of infant deaths and over 33% of maternal deaths in Pakistan are preventable!


Join us in the effort to save the lives of mothers and babies:
