I chose the CARE Organisation because I wanted to find out if any organisation is helping girls out there who are destroying their lives because of poverty, early marriage, and lack of education and getting pregnant young. This is important because in Malawi and other developing and poor countries around the world young girls become pregnant because they have less knowledge. Others start working at an early age because of poverty and get paid less because they are illiterate. Secondly I chose to research about CARE because it’s a worldwide organisation.

This success has been evidenced as CARE has decreased maternal and deaths of newborns by developing the treatment, quality and justice of health services available to women and children. This proves that they have been successful because they have also made sure that safe pregnancy and safe birth is a woman right for all women as men use woman for their benefit but once they find out that they are pregnant, they abandon them after.
