Do Something Seed Grant Implementation!

Kalalu Women's Voice (women's group) welcoming SAFE with a song.

Women in Kalalu Women's Voice now incorporate nutrition education in their safe motherhood activities (especially a brand new safe motherhood home-to-home visitation program).

For the first time ever, the men of Kalalu--specifically of Bugya Bukye and KAMEDE men's group--attended a safe motherhood training. Traditionally, local cultural views birth and child-rearing as a female responsibility; by participating in this training, these men are showing their commitment to safe motherhood--and we couldn't be happier!
