Caring for Mothers and Babies around the World
(we also care for babies in developed countries)

MATERCARE

MaterCare is an international organization of health
professionals dedicated to the care of mothers and babies,
both born and unborn, through new initiatives of service,
training, research and education, which are designed to reduce
the unacceptably high rates of maternal mortality,
morbidity and abortion.

Matercare’s mission is to serve the Culture of Life where it is most at risk – those crisis areas and hotspots where mothers and their children, born and unborn, are neglected or abandoned outright.

Donations to MaterCare Australia, the local branch of MaterCare International, are TAX DEDUCTIBLE in Australia

Will you help us help mothers?

One often wonders when looking at helping poor countries “Where do I start?”
