After 5 years of saving Lives through Project Safe Birth, We Are going Digital with “ImmuniTrack”!

by | Jun 13, 2025 | Children, Maternal health

For the past five years, Project Safe Birth has been a beacon of hope for expectant mothers, providing safe birth kits and essential health education. We’ve impacted over 20,000 women during this time, changing lives, one delivery at a time.

Now, we’re building on this foundation by going digital with ImmuniTrack, our innovation that teaches mothers how to use Google Calendar as a simple, free immunization reminder system. Because in maternal and child health, even one missed vaccine can change a child’s future, and we believe technology should be part of every mother’s support network.

Why this matters: Nigeria’s Immunization Crisis

  • An alarming 31% of Nigerian children aged 12–23 months miss essential vaccinations, with only 39% fully immunized Nairametrics.
  • In 2024, Nigeria accounted for 2.1 million “zero-dose” children—those who never received a single vaccine—more than any other country, Businessday NG.
  • Globally, a staggering 14.5 million infants missed DTP vaccine doses in 2023 Wikipedia.

These numbers highlight the urgency for innovative, community-driven solutions like ImmuniTrack.

    Community birth attendants become digital champions—trained to teach and empower mothers in their communities.
  3. Real-Time Impact
    The result? No child misses vital vaccines, and mothers gain digital literacy and confidence.

What’s Next?

  • We began rolling out ImmuniTrack at our February outreach.
  • Over the next 12 months, our goal is to reach 1,000 mothers, combining core immunization support with technology training.
  • We are looking for donors, CSR partners, and collaborators to join us in scaling this mother-centered, tech-powered initiative.

Imagine the Possibilities

With the right support, ImmuniTrack can become a scalable model that bridges digital gaps, strengthens maternal health, and builds empowered communities.

It’s Time to Join the Digital Health Revolution

We invite sponsors and CSR partners to help us shape the future of maternal care in Nigeria. Together, we can close the immunization gap and ensure every child begins life protected and every mother is digitally equipped.
