We exist because no woman should bleed to death from a cause we already know how to Prevent
The leading cause of maternal morbidity and Mortality in Sub-Saharan Africa
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.
When MEN Know, Mothers LIVE
Because delay often begins at home. We reduce delays in seeking care by educating male partners and family gatekeepers.
The Last 100 days Protection Plan
Because the Most preventable risks emerge late. We intensified monitoring in the final 100 days. The most fragile window
No Mothers Bleeds Alone
Community-linked emergency response, Immediate referral pathways linking home, families, and nearest full equipped health facility
