Grant Description

m-mama is a referral system specifically created for pregnancy, labour, or newborn emergencies.

It provides a charge-free number and a 24/7 call centre that connects women with fast and safe transportation to high-quality healthcare facilities.

The call centre sends an ambulance, or a community or taxi driver trained to handle the transportation of obstetric emergencies. They have the equipment they need to get patients safely to the hospital.

The community or taxi driver is identified through the m-mama mobile app and then paid immediately once safely at the hospital, at no cost to the woman. The m-mama system, successful in Tanzania and Lesotho, is now being launched in Kenya through this activity.
