Why this facility matters
19–25KM
The distance between a complication and a hospital bed.
That is how far a woman in these villages may travel to reach Mardan, and Peshawar is farther still. Cost, transport and cultural barriers delay the journey further. The Foundation brings first care into the valley.

Why your support matters
A facility is built once.
Healthcare must be delivered every day.
The Foundation's long-term impact depends on people and organisations who believe that geography or financial hardship should not decide whether a woman or child receives timely care.
Your support strengthens
