LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The Salvation for All Ministries women’s group, led by Pastor Ruth Kawinga, distributed various essential items to 150 children’s wards and postnatal units at Bwaila Hospital on Thursday, March 26th.
The donated items included baby blankets, infant clothing, blankets, and mops.
While making the donation, Mrs Kawinga stated that they visited the Kangaroo Baby Department to offer support to mothers who have given birth to premature babies.
She emphasized the importance of love and mutual support among women, acknowledging that many face significant challenges. She stressed the need for women to uplift each other both spiritually and physically.
Bwaila Hospital nurse Linda Chimbalanga expressed her gratitude for the timely donation, noting that many mothers struggle to provide for their newborns due to a lack of resources.
She highlighted that Bwaila Hospital receives between 50 and 70 newborns within 24 hours, with only occasional stillbirths, often linked to the long distances mothers travel to reach the referral hospital.
Dyna Lomani from Mtandire, one of the recipients, expressed her gratitude to the ministry and thanked God for blessing her with a baby boy.
Another beneficiary, Teleza Majawa, also appreciated the donation, stating that the blankets would greatly assist in caring for their babies.
Majawa urged the Salvation for All Ministries women’s group to continue their charitable work, emphasizing that many women in the ward are vulnerable and in need of both financial and material support.
