The problem
Anaemia and micronutrient deficiency in pregnancy are cheap to prevent and expensive to treat. We fund the supplements and let trained health workers do the delivery and counselling.
Expectant mothers in rural and tribal households frequently go without iron, folic acid and other essential supplements for long stretches of pregnancy — with consequences for both mother and child.
Our approach
How we work.
02
Deliver through health workers
Distribution and medical guidance handled by health workers who already know the households.
03
Keep it running
Funded in Year 2 and again in Year 3 so mothers are not covered for one quarter and dropped the next.
