Your Gift Helps 2X the Mothers Give Birth Safely

The Dominican Republic is one of the riskiest places in the world for pregnant women and newborns — and the pandemic has only made it worse.

Ninety-five out of every 100,000 women won’t survive childbirth. Nearly 20 out of every 1,000 babies won’t live to be one month old. Make your gift to the HOPE and Health Matching Gift Challenge by May 31 and your generosity will be doubled up to $600,000 to save the lives of more moms, babies and families around the world.

Teresa Narvaez has been with Project HOPE for 31 years. A nurse by training, she is our Country Director in the Dominican Republic. “What motivates me is seeing the birth of healthy children and mothers committed to giving them the best lives they can,” Teresa says.

Dedicated health care workers like Teresa are determined to save, protect and improve lives in their communities, no matter where they live. But they’re struggling to provide care as the pandemic continues to push health systems pass the breaking point in places like India, the Dominican Republic and Yemen.

They need your support — and today your generosity is 2X as powerful. Please don’t delay — make your gift to the HOPE and Healing Matching Gift Challenge right now.
