Overview
Mission
To prevent maternal deaths in rural Tanzania by equipping traditional birth attendants with lifesaving training and expanding access to maternal healthcare in remote communities.
What it reported doing in 2025
Program 1: Traditional Birth Attendant Training: Save the Mothers International trains traditional birth attendants (TBAs) in rural Tanzania to recognize dangerous childbirth complications and safely deliver babies in remote communities lacking medical facilities. During the year, the organization trained 135 birth attendants, who collectively assist with approximately 4,860 births annually.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
