Half Year in Review: The Stats

Here’s a rundown of CleanBirth.org’s numbers:

We’ve raised $17,537 to date in 2013

Spent 87% ($15,300) directly on women in Laos

The remaining 13% ($2,237) was spent on legal filings and fundraising, namely:

1. holding a Silent Auction in New Haven  (raised $4,400)

2. purchase and mailing of cards which we sell for donations ($2,400 to date)

We have no paid employees and have been the grateful beneficiaries of in-kind donations of: videography, photography, graphic design of cards, website design, fundraiser event venue, donations of auction items, etc…

With the $15,300 we have raised:

We have enough to purchase 2,000 Clean Birth Kits for mother in Laos.

We have funded the 2-day CleanBirth Nurses Training in June for 16 nurses

We have funded 2 upcoming Clean Birth Volunteer Trainings

We have funded part of the salaries of three employees of our local partner: they track the kits and ensure distribution

Feeling good that 87% of the money spent goes right to the women we are serving.
