Nurses and nursing students from the Duke School of Nursing are working alongside local experts in Guatemala to save the lives of moms and newborns. Together, we’re learning, sharing, and building a healthier future through community-based maternal and child health.

In the remote Mayan highlands, where access to care is limited, local heroes are using proven, sustainable strategies to empower mothers, prevent suffering, and ensure every baby has a chance to thrive. Our Duke team supports this life-saving work by listening, learning, and lifting up those on the frontlines.

We believe every mother and child deserves a safe and healthy start. But we can’t do it alone.

Donate today to help us support local caregivers and train the next generation of nurse leaders. Your gift will save lives.
