About Us

Who We Are: 

Sweet Mother International (SMI) Nigeria is a branch of a global non-profit organization dedicated to the health and well-being of mothers. We are committed to reducing maternal mortality and ensuring safe and healthy childbirth for all women in Nigeria. Our team comprises compassionate, dedicated professionals and volunteers united in the goal of nurturing and safeguarding motherhood.

Our Journey: 

SMI Nigeria was established in response to the alarming rate of maternal deaths in the country. Recognizing that every mother's life is precious, we embarked on a mission to make pregnancy and childbirth safe for all women, irrespective of their geographical location or economic status.

Our Work: 

Our work encompasses a range of activities aimed at supporting mothers and expectant women. This includes:

• Education and Training: We provide vital education and training to traditional birth attendants and healthcare workers in rural areas, equipping them with the skills and knowledge necessary to assist in safe childbirth.

• Healthcare Support: Through the distribution of birthing kits and essential medical supplies, we ensure that mothers in remote areas have access to basic but crucial birthing aids.

• Advocacy and Awareness: We actively advocate for better maternal healthcare policies and practices. Our awareness campaigns focus on the importance of prenatal and postnatal care, aiming to shift cultural perceptions and practices towards safer birthing methods.

• Community Engagement: Building strong community networks is at the heart of our approach. We engage with local communities to understand their specific needs and tailor our programs accordingly.

"SAVE" Campaign: 

Our flagship initiative, the "SAVE" (Save African Women from Pregnancy Related Deaths) campaign, directly addresses the urgent need to reduce maternal mortality in Nigeria. It's a call to action for individuals, communities, and the government to join hands in safeguarding the lives of pregnant women and new mothers.
