Save the Children and the Ad Council are working together to mobilize citizen action in the U.S. to help local health workers save more children worldwide. Local health workers are critical when it comes to newborn and child survival in the developing world. Â Thanks to the extension of basic health care by local health workers to children and mothers in developing countries, a child is being saved every 4 seconds. See Where the Good Goes supports these local health workers.
Each year, almost 9 million children in the developing world die of largely preventable and treatable illnesses before they reach the age of five – that equates to approximately 24,000 child deaths a day; however, every 4 seconds a child survives thanks to the basic health care provided by local health workers. Local health workers help children all over the world survive threats like newborn complications, pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria, and malnutrition.

So many things can be caught early & be treated if people receive proper care. Especially in early infancy.

Maternal and child healthcare is important because how you start out sets a you on a course for the rest of your life.
A parent’s health is directly linked to a child, especially infants as they can sense the well being of the parent- they are quite perceptive!

It is important to reduce infant mortality. Also, the better care people get when they are children, than they will grow up to be healthier adults.
