🌍💚 On today’s World Health Day, we at the Wells Mountain Initiative celebrate the incredible work being done by our Graduate Scholar, Sospeter Nyagabona, through the Pamoja Health for Better Children project. With the support of the WMI Growth Grant, Sospeter is transforming the future of maternal and neonatal health in rural Lindi, Tanzania.

Through this project;
200 midwives are receiving essential neonatal resuscitation and newborn care training, equipping them to save the lives of babies who struggle to breathe after birth.

500 pregnant and postpartum mothers are being empowered through health education, giving them the knowledge and tools to ensure the health and safety of both mother and child.

Sospeter’s dedication is helping to create healthy beginnings for mothers and babies, leading to hopeful futures.

We would like to share our heartfelt gratitude for the WMI Board of Directors, who recently convened in New Jersey for their bi-annual meeting (pictured below, with additional members joining virtually). A big thank you as well to The Ridgewood Country Club for hosting!

Not only was this an opportunity for this global board of directors to connect in-person, but was also a testament to the dedication that steers this organization. Several members flew or patched in from other countries to share ideas, insight, updates, and support. Members came away with renewed excitement for WMI’s work, and commitment to the journey ahead.
