Summary
We’ve sent cash to nearly 1,500 pregnant women in rural Kenya to support safer pregnancies and newborn care since September 2025.
Early data show women prioritizing food, baby supplies, and healthcare spending (6x what we see in our general poverty relief programs).
Cash is helping women cover specific costs to access healthcare: insurance fees, transportation, and clinic bills.
We’re expanding to reach more women in Kenya and piloting a similar model in DRC to learn what works across different contexts.
