In Syria and Türkiye, childbirth can quickly become a death sentence, Friend.
After earthquakes devastated the region and decimated health care systems earlier this year, 260,000 pregnant women in Syria and Türkiye are at grave risk.
But your 2x-matched gift today could open emergency clinics, deploy midwives, and deliver lifesaving care to mothers and pregnant women.
Three months after a 7.7 magnitude earthquake ravaged the region, Syria and Türkiye remain two of the most dangerous places in the world to be a mother.
Even though the world moved on, UNFPA is still on the ground delivering lifesaving care and resources to women and girls — to women like Buseyna.
Buseyna was forced to flee her home in Adıyaman, Türkiye, after the city was decimated.
Heavily pregnant, she traveled over 50 miles before stumbling upon a UNFPA women and girl’s safe space where the trained staff helped Buseyna safely give birth to her baby girl. After recovering, UNFPA provided Buseyna with a mama kit filled with supplies to care for her newborn in the midst of the evolving emergency.
“You reached us, helped with the birth and gave me a bag with everything we needed,” Buseyna said, expressing gratitude toward supporters like you.
By making a donation today, you can DOUBLE your impact and deliver lifesaving care to mothers like Buseyna.
Your gift will deliver lifesaving sexual and reproductive health care to women and girls in more than 150 countries around the world. Thank you for being there for every woman and girl.
