My Story

"The World Needs Our Mothers"

My name is Norah a wife and mother of 4. I had my firstborn when I was 19 years old under very difficult conditions in Uganda. Having experienced the hardships and near-death mothers and their babies go through during labour, I was moved to make a difference to maternal health in rural areas.

In 2019, I visited Gwendiya Health Centre in Gulu, northern Uganda with a couple of friends for the first time and witnessed the heart wrenching reality women go through giving birth. Apart from the obvious poverty in the region, the only health centre in more than 5 villages lacked basic supplies and hygienic products needed for safe childbirth. The centre, made up of two small rooms only had one maternity bed. This bed was old and rusty exposing mother and baby to life threatening infections.

With the help of close friends and family, we managed to buy a brand-new maternity bed for Gwengdiva health centre and sanitary supplies. I realised this was a small act in one village that needed to extend to regions with a similar plight. Mothers are everywhere!

Mayn Aid was birthed with a vision to help pregnant mothers and babies in communities with no access to health centres where they can go and deliver their babies safely through the provision of necessary Health Care Services and Supplies.

A Heartfelt Donation

"Mrs Natasha Tahor's Generosity Towards Our Charity"

I met Mrs Natasha Tahor through my work as well. She is a mother of two lovely girls, and as we talked, I shared with her what I do. She was deeply touched and moved with compassion. She immediately offered to buy a new maternity bed for the charity. The bed was purchased the next day and delivered to the lady featured in the pictures, who happens to be the midwife in the community.

As a charity, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs Natasha and her husband for their kindness and generosity towards our cause, and we look forward to working with them in the future.
