How Fetal Dopplers Make a Difference
Women go through their whole pregnancy in Northern Ghana without having access to a fetal doppler to ensure their baby is healthy - which means providers can’t see complications coming.
A mom in Ghana is 8x more likely than a mom in North America to die in childbirth.
Her baby is 5x more likely to die.
It’s one of the biggest factors contributing to preventable death and illness. It’s also one we can affect, quickly.
Make a Huge Impact.
Since right now, AFTER9 has gotten on board to help. That’s where you come in.
Leave a tip with your AFTER9 purchase. Whatever percentage you’re able to donate, we’ll match.
When you consider that one $30 fetal doppler will service up to 2,500* women & babies each year, you’ll agree - small contributions can have a big impact.
