Boda boda rides to the health centre for 80 births

A prepaid ride with a trusted rider, so labour does not start with a search for transport money.

The need

Ask a midwife why a mother delivered at home and the answer is often the same: there was no money for transport when labour started.

We work with a small group of trusted boda boda riders in Kifamba. A mother with a voucher calls the rider, the rider takes her to the health centre, and MANCO pays the rider at the end of the month. Twenty thousand shillings covers one ride.

What your money buys

One ride costs UGX 20,000. Here is where the money goes.
