Maternal Health at Te-Kworo Foundation

Te-Kworo Foundation is dedicated to providing pregnant women and their babies with access to safe, life-saving maternal healthcare in northern Uganda. Many women in the region face life-threatening risks during childbirth due to a lack of access to trained medical assistance.

Our medical and maternal health clinic is a beacon of hope, ensuring every mother and child has a chance at a healthy life.

Your Support Can Change Lives

To continue providing life-saving care, we rely on your support to address critical needs.

  • Birthing Kits: For mothers unable to reach the clinic, birthing kits containing essential items can save lives during childbirth in remote areas.

  • Midwife Training and Salaries: With over 1,000 women receiving healthcare annually, support for training and wages for our midwives is essential to sustain high-quality care.

  • Kworo Maternity Hospital: Opening soon, the Kworo Sonic Healthcare Foundation Hospital will address maternal health needs on a larger scale, offering specialized care to women and children. Support is needed for medical expertise, equipment, and operational funding to build and sustain a dedicated team of medical professionals.

"We work with the most vulnerable people in Northern Uganda, with pregnant women who have to walk several miles to get services."
