FIRST Mutual Health donated maternity hampers to 36 new mothers at Victoria Chitepo Provincial Hospital in Mutare under its MomCare initiative.
Business development manager, Mr Daniel Chipangura said the programme provides baby-care products to support women after childbirth. The initiative previously rolled out in Gweru and Bulawayo, with Harare next.
First Mutual Holdings Limited group marketing and brands specialist, Mr Tashinga Gomera said the campaign demonstrates commitment beyond standard medical aid.
VCPH administrator Ms Rachel Mhoshiwa welcomed the partnership.
Beneficiary, Mrs Rejoice Mapfundidze said the supplies offset newborn expenses.
“I am grateful for this donation because having a baby comes with many expenses. These items will help me as I begin caring for my child at home. It is encouraging to see organisations remembering mothers,” she said.
The hampers include nappies, baby clothes, and weighing bags.
