Training health care professionals is one thing, but for the health care professionals, if you want them to save lives, unless that training is supported by hands-on skill practice, unless that training is supported by materials, equipment, to function, to work, it doesn't make sense. And what makes the special difference in LDS Charities is, for all training they are providing, they also provide the necessary materials and equipment for the health care providers they are training. As a woman, as a mother, no woman gets pregnant to lose her baby on the day of birth. And as a health care provider, as a nurse, if you are there, if the mother is trusting you that you are the one who is going to help her, given that if you don't have the knowledge, if you don't have the skill, if you don't have any hands-on training, which means that the woman is in your hands, and if she survives, if her baby survives or not, depends upon your knowledge and skill. So for me, it means that having training, having competency, having confidence to save lives is more than anything.
