The Rotary Club of Jerrabomberra supports the global initiative to provide essential birthing kits in remote areas, promoting safe childbirth where medical facilities are limited.

nderstanding Clean Birth Kits
Clean birthing kits are a simple yet powerful solution designed to prevent maternal and newborn infections. Each kit, meticulously assembled by volunteers, contains essential items such as:
• A bar of soap for maintaining hygiene
• A clean plastic sheet to provide a sanitary birthing surface
• A sterile razor blade for cutting the umbilical cord
• A sterile umbilical cord tie
• Latex gloves to uphold cleanliness standards

The Broader Impact
Our efforts extend beyond merely providing medical supplies; these kits are lifelines that significantly diminish the risks associated with childbirth. By ensuring a clean and safe birthing environment, we equip mothers with the necessary tools to care for themselves and their newborns at delivery time. Distributed by the Birthing Kit Foundation Australia, our kits reach regions in Africa, Asia, and parts of PNG, where access to clean birthing facilities is scarce.
