DECEMBER 2023 NEWSLETTER

Fostering Support and Connection

VSF’s Plan and Goals

“Hello, and welcome to December. We want to thank you once again for your invaluable support as we continue to provide financial and emotional support to pregnant women with a history of infertility, recurrent miscarriages, and stillbirths.

OUR INITIATIVES

Yes, we have executed some projects this year: walkathons, sensitization programs, sourcing, and signing of beneficiaries. We plan to have one more sensitization this month. Currently, we have signed on thirteen beneficiaries. Our target this year is still to provide support to twenty women through pregnancy, birth, and beyond, and we are confident that we will achieve this goal before the end of the year.

OUR BABIES

All of our babies are thriving, and our program officers are in touch with the families to ensure that they are well-fed and receiving all the nutrition they need. We are gearing up to celebrate another birthday this December.

OUR PARTNERSHIPS

Our partnership with the Hospital Management Board, particularly with the Mother and Child Hospital in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria, continues to be fruitful. To date, the foundation has financed medical treatments at the hospital for nineteen women who had previously struggled with infertility, recurrent miscarriages, and stillbirths, enabling them to give birth to healthy babies. The hospital’s medical expertise and investigative support have been invaluable, and they have also been instrumental in providing high-quality healthcare to new mothers and infants. Additionally, the hospital has pledged to support our efforts to care for pregnant women who will be joining our program this year.

WHAT’S NEW

NEW CAMPAIGNS

One of our campaigns for the year, the 20smilesfor20years initiative, is still very much on course. The campaign has produced 12 babies so far. We will continue to collaborate with donors to offset the growing cost of providing support for our beneficiaries. To complement these efforts, we will be organizing more walkathons and encouraging individual campaigns.

OUR PARTNERSHIPS Presently, efforts are in top gear in facilitating a partnership with The University of Medical Science Teaching Hospital Akure. We will continue to cultivate more partnerships and collaborations that can assist us in advancing the foundation’s objectives. Please stay with us on this journey.”
