In Lucia’s region of the Dominican Republic, pregnant women used to have to trek through the mountains to reach the nearest clinic for prenatal care.

At 19, Lucia had experienced this with her first two pregnancies. “To go to the hospital, I would walk out and have to sit down to rest because I got dizzy.”

But now, during her third pregnancy, she has a new way to get the care she needs: motorcycles and ambulances.

UNFPA supplied these ambulances, as well as trained health care workers, equipped 10 primary care centers, increased access to family planning, and provided new mothers like Lucia with food packages and mama kits.

Thanks to the generous support of people like you, friend, we’re able to provide better care for mothers like Lucia in the Dominican Republic and all over the world.

Will you donate to support our lifesaving maternal health services and make motherhood safe? [[link removed]]

Sincerely,
