HOPE Health and Care took part in the launch of the 5th edition of the National Pink October Campaign, organized by the Office National de la Santé de la Reproduction (ONASR).
Pink October is the month of mobilization against breast cancer. For HOPE, it is a moment to recall that women’s health must be protected at every stage of life — from screening to pregnancy and childbirth.
At our stand, the team presented the Néné Kit, our clean birth kit, and met participants, health professionals and officials.

We are a non-governmental organization registered in Mali (Hope Association) and in the United States as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Hope Health and Care. Our mission is to reduce maternal and infant deaths in low-resource communities through the use of clean birth kits and improved access to essential maternal health services.
We empower women to attend prenatal care visits and ensure safe delivery by providing clean birth kits. When babies are delivered in clean environments, the survival of both mother and child is greatly improved. With offices in Mali and Atlanta, we work closely with local communities, health providers, and partners to promote safer pregnancies and healthier outcomes for mothers and newborns.
To create a world where every woman, regardless of her location, has the opportunity to give birth in a safe and clean environment, ensuring the health and well-being of both mother and child.
To reduce maternal and infant deaths in low-resource communities by empowering women to access prenatal care, promoting safe delivery practices, and providing clean birth kits to ensure mothers and babies survive and thrive.
We believe that giving life should not cost a life!
We are proud to introduce the Néné Kit — “Néné” means “mother” in Peuhl/Fulani — a clean birth kit created to make childbirth safer for women in underserved communities. Each eco-friendly and affordable kit includes all the essentials, from soap and gloves to cord clamps and sterile blades, ensuring a clean delivery. Every item is sterilized and neatly packed in a reusable tote bag that doubles as a diaper bag after birth. Through the Néné Kit, we are not only saving lives but also advancing UN Sustainable Development Goals 3.1 and 3.2 to reduce maternal and newborn deaths.
This kit was designed in accordance with the recommendations of the World Health Organization, to ensure a clean and safe delivery for women, particularly in low-resource settings.
Community-driven programs across Mali in partnership with local and international organizations.
In partnership with Fekola SA (B2Gold Corp.), we are supporting a community health program focused on malaria prevention and improved healthcare access. Our role includes implementing a malaria program that also targets employees living in surrounding communities, and assessing the impact of Fekola SA’s health initiatives on access and quality of care.
In partnership with B2Gold Mali, we are leading a prenatal awareness program in the Anaconda and Dandoko areas to improve maternal and infant health outcomes. The initiative promotes antenatal care visits, reduces home deliveries, and addresses harmful misconceptions through culturally adapted education sessions. Traditional nurses and community members, including men, are engaged as change agents. To encourage attendance, women who complete four prenatal visits receive HOPE’s Clean Birth Kits.
In partnership with CCM (Carrières et Chaux du Mali), we tackled malaria and maternal health challenges in Karaga. The project improved prenatal care attendance and encouraged early treatment for children with fevers, reducing preventable deaths.
In partnership with AMPDP (Association Malienne pour le Développement Rural), this project promoted hygiene at home and safe childbirth practices in Dabia. Through community sessions, home visits, and training for birth attendants, families adopted better hygiene, vaccination rates rose, and maternal deaths and malaria cases declined.

Every Ramadan, HOPE Association runs OSAR (Opération de Soutien Alimentaire pour le Ramadan) to support vulnerable families, including pregnant women, widows, and orphans. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we provide essential food items such as rice, millet, macaroni, milk, and oil to more than 400 families across Mali each year!
Hope Association is proud to have donated a public water borehole to the Bankoni community. What makes this initiative even more inspiring is the way residents have taken full ownership: they created a community savings fund to which each household contributes regularly. These funds maintain the borehole and will help build a second one — a true example of community-driven development.
Hope Association regularly organizes community games in vulnerable neighborhoods, where every participating child goes home a winner with school supplies. Beyond the fun, these games strengthen community ties and make sure children have what they need to succeed in school.
