Sierra Leone Maternal Care; meet Mamie Baindu |

Many years ago, a woman named Ballu came to Mamie after hearing of the high quality care provided by the clinics. Ballu was facing severe pregnancy complications that could have proved fatal, but thanks to Mamie and her nurses Ballu delivered a healthy baby girl.

It is literally a matter of life and death.
