Bringing a child into the world should be a moment of joy and hope. Yet, for many women living in crisis regions, this experience is overshadowed by fear and uncertainty.
Every two minutes, a woman dies from preventable childbirth or pregnancy complications. Those deaths occur at even higher rates in the world's most dire emergencies. In areas ravaged by conflict or natural disasters, expectant mothers face an impossible reality: fleeing violence and climate catastrophes — all while carrying new life.
Women like Lena in Kenya, who safely gave birth to her seventh child using a UNFPA emergency birth kit while seeking safety in the bush.
Lena shared, “That, I believe, is what saved my life.”
In Myanmar during the first tropical storm of the monsoon season, Phu Tu Nee gave birth safely to her first child with an emergency birth kit.

Jacqueline received an emergency birth kit from a UNFPA clinic after being displaced due to violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo where it was impossible for her to receive prenatal care. On her way to a health clinic, Alimanda had to use a plastic sheet from an emergency birth kit to deliver her daughter due to being displaced to the Marka Camp in Malawi.

Jacqueline and Alimanda had no health centers or midwives to turn to but UNFPA emergency birth kits ensured they brought their newborns into the world safely.
Each kit contains essential items — soap, a plastic sheet, a razor blade to cut the umbilical cord, cloth, and latex gloves — providing a sanitary environment for childbirth. You can provide these lifesaving kits to mothers across the world who are giving birth amidst violence, disaster, and displacement.
Make a gift toward emergency birth kits, helping ensure no woman is left alone during childbirth. Your support could mean the difference between life and death for women and their babies in vulnerable situations. [[link removed]?]

In crisis, sometimes all women have is the compassion of people like you who provide support and hope in their darkest hour.
