Our Vision
A world in which no child dies from preventable causes or from a lack of basic health services.
Our Mission
Our mission is to save the lives of vulnerable children and their mothers. We work in areas of high child mortality. We collaborate with and empower committed in-country partners to strengthen maternal and child health in the communities we serve.
What We Do
We work alongside local partners to address the barriers that keep mothers and children from accessing quality healthcare.
Clinical & Community Based Services
Expand access to essential healthcare for mothers and children, both in health facilities and within their communities.
Nutrition & Food Security
Work with communities to prevent and treat malnutrition and help families build healthier, more sustainable nutrition practices.
Capacity Building
Strengthen local health workers through training, resources and Learning for Humanity, our online education platform.
Water, Sanitation & Hygiene
Improve WASH access through solutions built with communities and sustained through their ongoing involvement.
Meet Monica
For families in Victoriano, Dominican Republic, and eight surrounding communities, Monica’s small pharmacy means essential medicine is close to home when they need it. Since 2019, she has helped neighbors access treatments that might otherwise be out of reach, now dispensing more than 2,000 medicines each month.
It began with MFH training and a $1,000 grant. Today, Monica keeps the pharmacy running on its own. A small investment that has become a lasting lifeline for her community. Read more stories from the field here.
