IMG_4022

Dear Shahinal,

Jalkaur is a young mother of three and is  pregnant with her fourth child. Her husband’s low income (approximately $60 per month) as an unskilled day laborer makes it difficult for the family to afford adequate medical care and nutritious food.

Jalkaur is receiving high quality antenatal care at the Health Centre run by Ashraya Initiative for Children (AIC), which includes regular counseling, monthly check-ups and medical care for the duration of her pregnancy and nutritional supplementation (mid-day meals and vitamins). Jalkaur has decided that this would be her last child, and she is very thankful that she would have comprehensive antenatal care and assistance during the time of delivery.

Thank you, Shahinal, for helping AIC provide comprehensive antenatal care to Jalkaur to enable her baby to develop and grow. Thanks to your support, she has the best chance of giving birth to a healthy, normal child.
