PPH Foundation exists because no woman should bleed to death while giving life
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal death in Tanzania, as well as East and Southern Africa, claiming the life of one woman every four minutes. Despite advances in maternal health, preventable deaths from PPH remain unacceptably high due to late recognition, inadequate preparation, and systemic gaps in antenatal and emergency care.
