Antenatal care (ANC) is a critical service that ensures the health and well-being of pregnant women and their unborn babies. Our NGO provides comprehensive ANC services to reduce maternal and infant mortality, prevent complications, and promote healthy pregnancies.
Pregnancy is a vulnerable period, especially in underserved communities, where lack of medical support can lead to preventable health issues for both mother and child. ANC services empower women with the knowledge, care, and support they need for a safe pregnancy and childbirth.
