    Mothers are the leverage point: the ones who ensure children get food, education and clean water.  In low-income, underdeveloped settings, newborns and young children without mothers perish in substantially greater numbers.

    That’s why Worldwide Healing Hands works to stop the needless deaths of mothers who are dying of preventable causes. We are dedicated to improving the quality of healthcare for women and children in the most underserved areas of the world.
