HIV test for a mother

Nonprofit_logo_00015_00010_normal

Problem

Mothers who have been infected with the HIV virus can pass the virus to their babies during pregnancy and childbirth. But treatment with Nevirapine, an anti-AIDS drug, before and during childbirth, can keep the baby from being infected.

The Gift

Your gift can provide voluntary testing for HIV and counseling to a pregnant woman, and if she is infected, treatment to prevent the virus from passing to the baby.
