Barakat Bundle is a non-profit organization that focuses on addressing barriers to maternal and infant healthcare in South Asia through its signature "Barakat Bundle." The bundle comprises essential care items and educational resources aimed at providing life-saving support to South Asian mothers and newborns. The organization collaborates directly with local communities and healthcare professionals to ensure its approach is human-centered, evidence-based, and integrated with existing health systems.
Founded in 2015, Barakat Bundle operates within the education and healthcare industries, striving to reduce preventable infant and maternal mortality in South Asia. The bundle, inspired by the Finnish Baby Box, includes evidence-based medical items, demand-driving care items, a custom pictorial health education calendar, and a safe-sleep Giving Cradle, bundled together to support mothers and newborns during the first year of life.
The organization's efforts are further supported by a Non Equity Assistance investment received on 01 November 2015, with MassChallenge contributing to the cause. This investment signifies external acknowledgment and support for Barakat Bundle's mission to make a meaningful impact on maternal and infant healthcare in South Asia.
