## Description

Begin Life Safely (BLS) is a nonprofit organization advancing health equity and community development in Kenya. It began in 2014 as a safe motherhood education project in Nyakach Sub-County, Kisumu County, and was formally founded and registered as an organization in October 2016. Its mission is to help Kenyan women experience safer pregnancies and skilled deliveries by providing education and addressing barriers to maternity care. BLS works across maternal and child health, water, sanitation and hygiene, women’s economic empowerment, and environmental conservation, using partnerships to support collaborative, community-focused initiatives.

Its programs include safe motherhood education and access to skilled maternity care for pregnant women and teenage girls; support for teenage mothers returning to school after childbirth; and assistance with clean water, sanitation, and hygiene essentials. The organization also promotes better nutrition and sustainable income by helping new mothers acquire goats, and supports rural women through tree planting and environmental education. Guided by integrity, equity, and partnership, BLS seeks healthy communities with fair access to healthcare and development opportunities.
