One Heart Worldwide is raising money to renovate the Tokarpur Health Post Birthing Center. Tokarpur lies in one of the most remote parts of Nepal's Ramechhap District. Even though the health facility is not currently considered a Birthing Center given the limited infrastructure and untrained human resources, there is a desperate need for these services in the community. There have been nine deliveries without a trained skilled birth attendant and proper equipment in just the last three months.
