Our Story

YaayCare is an initiative of 1000 POUR UNE CAUSE, a non-profit association established in June 2021 with a mission to reduce social inequalities and provide practical solutions for vulnerable communities in Senegal. Guided by the values of sincerity, commitment, excellence, integrity, and solidarity, 1000 POUR UNE CAUSE works to improve the living conditions of the underprivileged through its main initiatives, including 1000 POUR 1 VIE (supporting healthcare for disadvantaged children) in partnership with hospitals across Senegal, and 1000 POUR 1 PUITS (providing access to clean water in rural areas). By supporting YaayCare, you become part of this shared vision of solidarity and collective impact, working to promote the health and well-being of mothers and children.

Pilot

Diamniadio & Diourbel, Senegal

Our pilot launches in two distinct yet deeply connected regions — Diamniadio and Diourbel. Diamniadio, a rapidly developing urban center near Dakar, represents the energy and innovation driving Senegal’s future. Diourbel, known for its strong cultural roots and close-knit communities, reflects the heart and tradition that define everyday family life.

Where We’re Starting

YaayCare begins its journey in Senegal, focusing on communities where innovation meets tradition.

Partners

Diamniadio Children’s Hospital

As one of Senegal’s most respected pediatric and maternal care institutions, Diamniadio Children’s Hospital serves as the cornerstone of our pilot program. With a commitment to quality healthcare and compassion, the hospital provides essential medical expertise while partnering with YaayCare to extend support beyond its walls.

Our Values

YaayCare stands on five core values — Community, Accountability, Resilience, Equity, and Sustainability
— guiding every action we take to support mothers with care that lasts and uplifts.
