Susu Mamas

Susu Mama’s is a highly regarded organisation in Papua New Guinea. The Sir Brian Bell Foundation has proudly been supporting this great cause in helping to educate and promote breastfeeding infants.

The Sir Brian Bell Foundation has provided capacity building funding to the organisation to further enhance training, education and equipment requirements.

Our role in supporting Susu Mama’s has been significant during 2018, with the largest funding being provided towards purchasing a brand new Toyota Landcruiser, for the use in Central Province.

The funding provided in 2018 directly assisted Susu Mama’s activities covering:

• Health Information
• Providing joint Maternal and child health services with other health facilities
• Breastfeeding Workshops
• Promoting the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative BFHI
• One stop approach for integrated family and youth health care
• Outreach Health Services – mobile clinics

The partnership between the Sir Brian Bell Foundation and Susu Mama’s will continue into 2019 and beyond. Our funding is directly changing lives and ensuring the lives of new infants will start if a healthy environment.
