Barbara May Foundation

Barbara May Foundation (BMF) is committed to restoring women's dignity through fistula treatment and prevention. We are committed to reducing the number of women dying or sustaining preventable childbirth injuries in East Africa.

BMF builds and supports the running costs of high-quality, fully-equipped maternity hospitals, to save women's lives during pregnancy and childbirth.

BMF trains and equips local midwives, doctors and surgeons, as well as - in remote areas - traditional village birth attendants.

BMF restores women's dignity, agency and hope, through fistula repair surgeries.

All of these services are provided free of charge, to ensure every woman has access to free maternal healthcare.
