Breastfeeding Concerns
E N D
At the beginning of August we commemorated World Breastfeeding Week, an initiative UNICEF South Africa has been part of since its inception. As a constant advocate for supporting and educating new mothers on the benefits of breastfeeding, concerns about breastfeeding during the pandemic also came under the spotlight.
Donor support and online donations have gone a long way in assisting vulnerable mothers through ongoing education and training initiatives. Among these is the peer mentor programme, providing life-saving antenatal and postnatal services to pregnant women and young mothers. The result? Many happy moms and babies.
