Mother’s Day gift that’s priceless

Feel extra good this Mother’s Day by sponsoring a mum-to-be in India

A Mother's Day gift with a difference

Not all mums have the luxury of putting their feet up on Mother’s Day. For some mums, providing their family with basic necessities is a daily struggle.

Now you can make a real difference by giving a Mother’s Day gift that will put a smile on more than one mum’s face. For £10 a month, the Sponsor a Mother programme, from Child in Need India (CINI), helps mums-to-be from poor slums and villages get access to nutritional support and healthcare during their pregnancy, birth and after their child is born.

As part of the Mother’s Day sponsorship package, you’ll receive a rakhi bracelet, as a symbol of love and protection, and regularly hear about the mum you’ve helped.

One in 14 babies die before their 5th birthday in India. This gift could give hope to a mum in India – and make you feel extra special this Mother’s Day.

Visit www.cini.org.uk to find out more.
