Rescue Mother and Child Afghanistan
Welcome to the Rescue Mother and Child Afghanistan Foundation (RMCA).
Every two hours, a mother dies from preventable complications related to pregnancy and childbirth. We support the renovation and reopening of healthcare centers around Kabul and develop training programs focused on maternity care and early childhood healthcare.
Since 8 December 2024, one medical clinic has been operating in Wardak, featuring a delivery room and staffed by five medical professionals. Women from the surrounding region can receive maternity and perinatal care for both mother and child at our clinic — care that can be lifesaving. In addition to midwifery services, the clinic provides medical care by a general practitioner, a vaccination program for children under the age of five, nutritional support for malnourished children, and a mental health consultation service. We employ three women, and the clinic welcomes over 100 patients daily.
Our goal is to open more medical clinics to reach even more women and children. This is only possible with your support. Through your recurring donations, we fund medical staff in Afghanistan as well as essential supplies and medical equipment needed to keep the clinics operational.
