Help for pregnant women


If you are pregnant and need financial help, you can apply for support from the Federal Foundation "Mother and Child - Protection of Unborn Life". In Lower Saxony, this aid is provided centrally by the Foundation Family in Need.

The aids are intended, for example, for the purchase of maternity clothing, baby equipment, the furnishing of a children's room or a change of residence.
