Maternal Healthcare
Services
Empowering Mothers. Protecting Lives. Building Healthier Futures.
At Mini’s Village Foundation, we recognise that maternal health lies at the heart of community wellbeing. Every pregnancy should be a joyful journey — not a risk to life. Yet across Sierra Leone, too many women and newborns still face preventable complications due to poverty, limited access to care, and lack of health education.
Our Maternal Healthcare Programme was established to change that reality. Through integrated, community-driven initiatives, MVF works to ensure that every woman — regardless of where she lives — has access to safe, affordable, and compassionate care throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period.
Our Commitment
We are committed to:
Reducing preventable maternal and infant deaths through early detection, skilled care, and timely intervention.
Promoting safe motherhood by empowering women with knowledge, resources, and community support.
Breaking barriers to access through outreach clinics, mobile health services, and partnerships with local health facilities.
Supporting vulnerable mothers — including those living with HIV, teenage mothers, and women in remote villages.
