In the process of dismantling USAID, The Trump Administration terminated all funding for UNFPA’s lifesaving work.

Since losing funding, children have died. Mothers and their children are going without food or lifesaving medicine. Medical care, reproductive health, and protection services are gone, leaving women at risk.

Without funding from the U.S. government, UNFPA is counting on the generosity of donors like you to support our lifesaving work to help women and girls worldwide. Can you make an emergency gift today? [[link removed]?]

Kristof visited a maternity clinic in South Sudan operated by UNFPA. He writes:



“South Sudan is one of the most dangerous places in the world to become pregnant, with women mostly giving birth in their huts, without medical care or trained assistance. While the statistics are uncertain, a girl in South Sudan thus appears more likely to die in childbirth than to graduate from high school…
I visited a maternity clinic that opened in December in Aweil East County with funding from the United Nations Population Fund. Until then, there was no health care available in the area, and moms and babies died regularly during unassisted childbirth in the home.
The clinic is a triumph: Since it opened with a trained midwife, Susan Ikoki, not one mother or baby has died.”



Now, pregnant women in South Sudan will give birth in dangerous, life-threatening conditions. The clinic is set to close this month because of cuts in funding.

Your support has been a lifeline for women and girls around the world. This new report from the New York Times lays out exactly what is at stake if generous individuals like you don’t step up for the world’s most vulnerable.

Please rush an emergency gift to support maternity clinics in South Sudan and beyond. [[link removed]?]
