Existing low-cost, low-technology and high impact interventions such as vaccines, antibiotics, micronutrient supplementation, insecticide-treated bednets, improved breastfeeding practices and adoption of safe hygiene practices can prevent unnecessary maternal and child deaths and reduce undernutrition.

By packaging services and implementing at scale, high impact and evidence-based maternal, newborn and child survival interventions, we can save millions of lives. By ensuring that all children have access to basic education and by focusing on children marginalized by poverty, HIV/AIDS, conflict and discrimination, we can break the cycle of poverty that keeps children on the brink of survival.

This year just like the years before Serge is collecting donations for Unicef through the means of Blogathon. Visitors and friends of Serge is encourage to make a pledge through Serge’s donation link. Pledges of $10 and above will have the next post dedicated to said pledger in the form of a poem. Remember folks, make a difference for the children. Plege and Donate
