About OneMama
I founded OneMama as a nonprofit organization with a
mission to bring prosperity and health to people all
over the world by empowering women as caregivers,
mothers, businesswomen and agents of change for their
rural communities.
OneMama puts special focus on women, specifically
midwives who are often at the center of these
impoverished communities. For example, in Uganda,
90-95% of women have their babies with a midwife.
Women in late term pregnancy travel by foot for miles
in order to give birth with a midwife they trust. At
times, a single midwife nurtures all of the mothers
and infants of an entire community- thus, quite
literally being one mother for all: One Mama. It is
the woman, the midwife, the mother and the men and
children who love them who bring these communities to
life. OneMama is the nurturer, the protector, and the
source of life for those in need.
OneMama's mission begins with a pilot program in
Uganda. This program provides a medical clinic and
supplies, along with onsite health and financial
education for midwives and their clients. Clinic
participants learn about family planning, pre and
postnatal care, and economic sustainability. The
participants, whether they are mothers, fathers,
midwives, or volunteers must contribute back to
OneMama, creating a unified support system. We will
eventually replicate this program in different
communities around the globe.
Please check out our newly launched website,
www.onemama.org for more information.

You will receive a cultural education, a new
perspective, a sense of global connection and a
