The Adopt a Mother and Save her Child project concentrates on ante natal care and the first two years of a child’s life, during which time, proper nutrition is particularly critical. CINI believes that the most effective way to give a child born into a poor family the best possible start in life is through its mother; nobody is going to take better care of her unborn child or her infant, but she needs to be given the right support. Your donation can help provide that support in the form of nutritional advice, ante and post-natal care, and improved access to government facilities like hospitals for institutional deliveries and child vaccination
programmes. These are all crucial factors in ensuring a safe pregnancy and delivery for the mother and a healthy start in life for her child.

You will be linked to a mother and her baby in a rural or urban area and will be able to follow their progress through a series of three reports until the child is 2 years old: first, some background information about the mother; then a report
after the birth of her baby together with a photograph; and finally, a report at the end of the programme. After this, you will be linked to a new mother or you can continue on to the Educate a Child programme.
In fact, you will be doing much more than supporting an individual mother and child. The way CINI uses the money raised by the Adopt a Mother initiative is to create a support network within a community. CINI reaches out to women through a wide range of educational programmes and healthcare initiatives. It sends CINI trained health workers to make door to door health visits and give talks in their districts. This means that in addition to monitoring the mother and child you support, a health worker will also be able to visit a number of other pregnant women and newborn children at the same time. Often, a whole village will come to listen to the health worker’s advice. This innovative approach allows you to connect with an individual mother and child while touching the lives of many others.
