Problem

In many developing countries, infants die needlessly because their caregivers lack the skills needed to resuscitate them or to stabilize their precarious medical condition at birth.

This situation is correctible, and through training, these important skills are easily transferable. By giving medical practitioners who care for infants the opportunity to learn these skills, thousands of young lives -the hope and future of these emerging societies - can be saved each year.

The Gift

Your gift will provide two days of intensive classroom and practical training for a doctor or nurse in a developing country to gain the skills they desperately need to save babies experiencing breathing or other cardio-pulmonary difficulties at birth.
