Saving Mothers & Children

Service Above Self With Action + Fun

Rotary makes high-quality health care available to vulnerable mothers and children

So They Can Live Longer & Grow Stronger.

We expand access to quality care so mothers and children everywhere can have the same opportunities for a healthy future. An estimated 5.9 million children under the age of five die each year because of malnutrition, inadequate health care, and poor sanitation — all of which can be prevented.

How Rotary Makes Help Happen

Rotary provides education, immunizations, birth kits, and mobile health clinics. Women are taught how to prevent mother-to-infant HIV transmission, how to breast-feed, and how to protect themselves and their children from disease.
