Ìyá Àti Ọmọ · Mother and Child

Care that meets every mother with warmth.

We work with women and families across Ogun State, including waterfront communities that sit beyond the reach of the formal health system. We connect them to antenatal care, safe delivery and the weeks that follow, using low-tech, high-trust methods that fit how people already live.

The things donors, volunteers, and families ask us most often.

Ask us anything
What does Grace Maternal Foundation do?

We work to improve maternal and child healthcare in the underserved communities of Ogun State. That means connecting women to antenatal care, safe delivery and postnatal support, and sharing practical health knowledge in the language and settings mothers already trust.

Where does the Foundation work?

Across Ogun State, Nigeria, with a particular focus on waterfront and hard-to-reach communities that sit beyond the reach of the formal health system.

Is the Foundation registered?

Yes. Grace Maternal Foundation is a registered Nigerian NGO with the Corporate Affairs Commission, CAC No. 9660386.

How can I support the work?

You can give, volunteer your time and skills, or partner with us as an organisation. Online payments go live at launch; in the meantime, reach us through the contact page and we will take it from there.

Why is it called Ìyá Àti Ọmọ?

Ìyá Àti Ọmọ is Yoruba for Mother and Child. The Foundation is named in loving memory of the founder's mother, Grace, and the Yoruba name is a deliberate act of cultural identity, always written with its correct tonal marks.

How are impact stories shared?

Only with consent. Photographed stories follow the Foundation's first outreach, are shared with each family's permission, and use first names alone. We never present a stock photograph as a real beneficiary.
