Call
for Funders: Transforming Rural Healthcare with Solar-Powered Maternity Wards
Partner
with Us to Save Lives and Build Resilient Healthcare Systems
Access to reliable electricity is a
matter of life and death for mothers and newborns in rural Uganda. In Kibaale
District, where maternal and infant mortality rates remain unacceptably high,
health facilities often operate without consistent power. This lack of
electricity disrupts critical medical services, placing lives at unnecessary
risk.
The Rural Smiles Foundation is
addressing this urgent challenge by equipping maternity wards in rural health
centers with reliable solar energy. Our initiative has already transformed 12
health facilities, enabling them to deliver life-saving services 24/7.
However, the need remains vast, and we cannot do it alone.
Why
This Initiative Matters
- Safe Deliveries:
Solar energy ensures adequate lighting and powered medical equipment
during childbirth, drastically reducing complications.
- Uninterrupted Healthcare: From powering vaccine refrigerators to running
essential diagnostic tools, solar energy makes health services reliable
and accessible.
- Sustainability:
Our training programs for hospital staff ensure that the solar systems are
well-maintained and continue to serve communities for years to come.
Our
Goal: Expand Impact to 20 Additional Health Centers by 2027
To save more lives, we aim to equip 20
more health facilities with solar-powered systems by 2027. With your
support, we can:
- Extend life-saving interventions to thousands of
mothers and newborns.
- Build capacity for health workers through solar
maintenance training programs.
- Foster resilient healthcare systems that address
long-standing inequities.
How
You Can Help
We are calling on foundations,
corporate social responsibility programs, international development agencies,
and individual philanthropists to join us in this life-changing mission.
Your funding will:
- Procure and install solar systems in underserved health
facilities.
- Support staff training programs to ensure long-term
sustainability.
- Enable thousands of mothers and children to access safe
and dignified healthcare.
