Here at our health facility, we have been attending to over 50 expectant mothers daily, thanks to mobilization by CHVs (red. Community Health Volunteers) through their bicycles” – Eunice Nyang’ara, a health officer at Kowino Health Center, Kisumu, Kenya.

“I have made over 20 referrals for expectant mothers” – Lydia Digo gezondheidsvrijwilliger Kisumu
