Custos care foundation launches the mama care initiative: enrolls 1701 women

We are proud to announce the launch of the Mama Care Initiative, a groundbreaking program aimed at reducing maternal and infant mortality in Enugu State. Our founder, Her Excellency, Nkechinyere Mbah, the wife of the Enugu State Governor, has once again demonstrated her unwavering commitment to the well-being of women and children.
The Mama Care Initiative is designed to provide essential services to expectant mothers, including:
– Health Insurance: 1,701 pregnant women across the 17 local government areas of Enugu State have been enrolled in a one-year health insurance premium.
– Pre-natal and Postnatal Care: Comprehensive healthcare services, including antenatal care, safe and supervised delivery, and postnatal care.
– The program provided proactive medical outreach and health education to ensure that expectant mothers are well-informed and empowered to make healthy choices.
– 1,701 bags of rice were also distributed to the beneficiaries to support the nutritional needs of both mothers and their unborn babies and they also received financial support.
The Mama Care Initiative is a testament to our founder’s vision of a state where women have access to quality healthcare, and maternal and infant mortality are significantly reduced. Our commitment is to provide our mothers with the security and support they need to bring new life into the world safely and healthily.
In her speech, Mrs Mbah urged the pregnant women in Enugu State to attend their antenatal appointments diligently, take their routine drugs religiously, and choose hospitals or healthcare centres for childbirth because their health and the health of their baby are paramount.
We would like to express our gratitude to our founder, Her Excellency, Nkechinyere Mbah, for her unwavering dedication to the well-being of women and children in Enugu State. We also thank the Commissioner for Health, Enugu State, Emmanuel Obi, for his support and partnership in this initiative.
