What: If 200 people can donate JUST $5, we'll reach our goal for this month! * Just 6 cents can provide one packet of oral rehydration salts for one child to treat severe dehydration and diarrhea, a leading cause of death among young children in developing nations. * $1 protects a child from measles for life. Measles is lethally infectious. It is still responsible for 750,000 child deaths annually. * $1.20 can immunize a mother and her newborns against maternal and neonatal tetanus, which is completely preventable but claims the lives of about 30,000 mothers and 200,000 newborns each year. * $2.50 can provide one child with basic school supplies such as pencils, books, chalk, slate board and paper.
