Give neonatal care to vulnerable babies

Newborn babies bring joy and hope to the world, but in many countries keeping them healthy and helping them survive can become a challenge. Providing the medical care they need is possible - but we need your help to do it.

You can help provide the quality health care and life-saving supplies needed to save newborns all over the world. By making a donation right now, you can help provide three essential services:

  1. Scale up essential maternal and newborn care services where it is most needed
  2. Keep immunization programmes going
  3. Support prevention and treatment of pneumonia, diarrhoea, malaria and other deadly threats to children

Many newborn babies and mothers are still dying from preventable causes, such as infectious diseases and complications during pregnancy or childbirth. No mother should go through this traumatic experience. No child should suffer the consequences of not having received the proper care they needed when they were born.

Help them survive and thrive

 

For babies born into conflict areas the challenges are even bigger and the risks greater.

In Yemen, Diala’a was suffering from malnutrition and skin diseases - thanks to the support received she recovered. But there are still many other children in Yemen, Syria and many other countries that need help to survive the first months of life.

Your donation will help children like Ayedatujannah

Ayedatujannah one year of growth

This little girl was born 8 weeks premature and weighing just 2 kilograms. She spent 4 days at a UNICEF-supported Special Newborn Unit in Bangladesh and thanks to the care she received and her mother´s breastfeeding and support, she survived and now is a happy and healthy child.

Your donation can support children survive their first critical days and years, and thrive into their youth. Donate today and provide health care for every child.
