Cure International helping Afghan Mothers

Cure International is helping mothers in Afghanistan by providing care for them while they are pregnant.  Did you know that a woman’s life expectancy in Afghanistan is 44 years?  I was shocked to find a woman dies in childbirth every 30 minutes.  There are so many amazing charities out there but this one really struck my heart.  I have a heart for mothers and their babies.  This is such a simple problem that we have simple solutions too… but it is a devastating one.  You can either send a card and Cure will donate $3 for a pre-natal visit for one mother… or you can look at their online catalog and provide simple needs for the mothers and babies in afghanistan with not a whole lot of money.  Think of it, just your Starbucks latte in the morning could help save a child.
