Think
about the Mother, the birth of Her Child and all the love
and hopes. The health of the Baby is directly affected by
the health of the Mother. But there are virtually no programs
addressing the Mother's health. The Mother needs Good
Nutrition to have a Healthy Baby. The Mother and Child Foundation
is a charity working to protect the health of the mother and prevent
brain damage during foetal and infant development.
