A world where every pregnancy is safe
The world’s first Zakat approved Muslim collaborative for mothers and newborns
800 women die everyday due to complications in pregnancy or childbirth. Without their moms, babies only have a 37% chance of making it to their first birthday. Our global, partner-driven coalition of organizations is united by faith, driven by evidence, and unwavering in our commitment to change this. Together, we:
- Expand the chorus of voices championing high quality health care for mothers and their babies.
- Mobilize and channel resources to increase access to lifesaving care for those who need care most.
- Scale the latest innovations so that these reach mothers in countries impacted by conflict and crisis.

2 Minutes
Every 2 minutes a woman dies in pregnancy or childbirth.
2x Higher
Maternal and infant mortality rates are 2x as high in Muslim-majority countries.
2/3 Deaths
Well-trained midwives could help prevent 2/3s of all maternal and newborn deaths.
40% of deaths
More than 40% of newborn deaths could be prevented by proven interventions like skilled birth attendance.
A movement is born
In 2023, a coalition of faith-inspired philanthropies and donors in the U.S. and U.K. came together with an aim to raise awareness of the high rates of maternal deaths around the world. Months of consultations and planning culminated in For Mama – a charitable giving and advocacy campaign asking the world to think about what we can — and should do— ‘for mama’ to ensure that life-saving interventions reach the mothers and babies who need them most.
Over the course of Ramadan in 2024, For Mama mobilized over $13M for maternal health programs and drove thousands of people from more than 130 countries to speak out in solidarity about the need to end preventable maternal death.
Building on this momentum, the 2025 campaign saw nearly 38,000 donors contribute more than $21M, providing life-saving care to over half a million mothers in crisis-affected regions, where help is needed most.
Building on this success, For Mama has now evolved into Every Pregnancy, a partnership-driven organization poised to continue transforming the state of maternal health care for years to come.

As a mom to twins who just turned one, I've only recently begun to hear the very sweet sounds of someone calling me 'mama'. It's something I don't take for granted — knowing that every two minutes a woman dies during pregnancy or childbirth. What gives me hope is also knowing that stat is preventable, and that a campaign like 'For Mama' is one of the first steps.

As a mother and a Muslim I know the privilege and power of this role. It's the hardest job in the world and makes more of a difference in a child's development than any other. Making sure mothers are taken care of is one of the most direct levers to a stronger family, healthier children and a more compassionate society.

After more than 14 years working to tackle some of the toughest global health and development challenges, I still have unwavering hope that another world is possible. Every Pregnancy is a heartening example of what can be achieved when progress is driven by the most impacted communities. I’m honored to have played a role in the beginning of Every Pregnancy’s story and to continue working alongside the coalition’s partners to shape a future where every mother and every baby has access to the health care they need and deserve.
