The most striking thing you see in the maternity ward at the Bulape Hospital is not the babies. It is the hanging mosquito nets over each bed.
The nets protect the mother and her newborn baby from malaria. Pregnant and nursing women along with babies are most vulnerable to malaria. Too many times it is fatal.
We, Congo Helping Hands, provide mosquito nets free of charge to this vulnerable group to take home.
