BISP launches Nashonuma Program for mothers and children

The Benazir Income Support Programme launches Nashonuma to boost mother and child health across Pakistan.

This key initiative delivers cash help and nutrient-packed food to pregnant women, nursing moms, and kids up to two years old. Only women already registered with BISP qualify for Nashonuma benefits. It targets expectant mothers, breastfeeding women, and infants under 23 months. The goal focuses on strong early growth for babies and better wellness for moms from day one.

Pregnant women receive Rs2500 every three months. At birth, they get Rs2500 for a boy or Rs3000 for a girl that extra Rs500 covers travel costs. Payments continue in steps until the child turns two. On top, families enjoy special nutritious meals that build strong bodies and sharp minds. Nashonuma stands apart from regular BISP aid. It eases money worries for poor households while tackling hunger and stunting head-on.
