WHY WE DO IT

We know that not every woman has access to the resources necessary for effective family planning, and we want to change that, because preventing unplanned pregnancy means:​

  • increased ability to plan pregnancies
  • better educational and economic outcomes
  • more stable families
  • increased health and happiness for women and children
