Support Young Mothers!



In some remote areas of the country children as young as 11 are pregnant!

According to the ministry of education statistics ,28,600 girls left school between 2004 and 2008 because they were pregnant .
At secondary level the figure are alarming :in 2007 one in five fell pregnant and did not finish school.

One of the reasons for the large number of pregnant is that many have girls have unprotected sex and lack of access to contraceptives.

Social is another reason where by parents threaten to throw their daughter out of their homes if they attend hight school and refuse to marry,they even ask their daughters to fail their studies so they can marry as soon as possible.

Mamas Health Organization as a charitable and non-governmemnt organization working hard in creating jobs.
As an individual or institution DONOR(S) you are warm welcome to support .

If you like to assist MHO in developing and have suggestions for implementing a new idea that you feel may benefit the young mothers,we encourage you to contact us through mhosafaris@gmail.com

In many poor counrtries like Tanzania children cannot go to school unless they have uniforms,exercise books ect.

Its costs 70usd to cover the costs for a child in a local Primary School for a Year.

Its cost 55usd to help a woman to buy a reconditioned sewing machines so that she can start little businessand feed her family.
