Our Vision

A world where every pregnancy is safe

Our Mission

Every Pregnancy is a bold, partner-driven initiative dedicated to saving the lives of mothers and babies globally. Despite advancements in maternal health care, nearly 800 women die every day from preventable pregnancy complications. These lives are not just statistics — they are mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends who could have been saved with timely interventions.

No woman should have to die giving life. Yet, the reality is that where a woman lives, how much she earns, or what value her community places on her life, too often determine whether she lives or dies in childbirth. This is a profound failure of justice.

At Every Pregnancy we are changing this. We connect voices from the most affected communities with changemakers worldwide, fostering collaboration and scaling holistic maternal health interventions that are culturally sensitive and scientifically proven. Our coalition spans 40+ faith-inspired organizations that first came together in 2023 and are united in our commitment to makingevery pregnancy safe.

A Movement of Firsts

Every Pregnancy has been pioneering in maternal health advocacy since its inception in 2023. By uniting diverse voices, bridging gaps, and driving systemic change, we are breaking new ground to ensure every mother and baby receives the care they deserve.

For the first time ever, we have:

United 30+ faith-inspired Muslim philanthropies and NGOs to support moms and babies.

Organizations across the US, UK, Canada, Pakistan, and Yemen have come together in a collective effort to improve maternal and newborn health. This unprecedented coalition brings together organizations that had never before collaborated on this urgent issue.

Launched the groundbreaking ‘For Mama Challenge’ during Ramadan.

In 2024, we mobilized over $13 million to directly support maternal health initiatives rooted in Muslim communities. This campaign created a powerful movement, engaging faith leaders, advocates, and donors to stand in solidarity with mothers.

Secured the first-ever fatwa declaring maternal and newborn health programs eligible for Zakat funding.

This historic achievement paves the way for sustainable funding that can transform the lives of mothers and babies in underserved communities.

Put mothers first.

We have delivered life-saving medical equipment and interventions to thousands of mothers through frontline partners working in conflict and disaster settings. From emergency obstetric care to essential maternal health supplies, our impact reaches women who would otherwise have no access to care.

By forging new partnerships, shifting norms, and ensuring maternal health is prioritized in faith-based giving, Every Pregnancy is not just supporting mothers—it is reshaping the global maternal health landscape.
