Your Investment Works

When babies are born healthy they’re ready for school, more likely to succeed in life and less likely to become entangled with the justice system, meaning thriving families and communities. Your financial and volunteer support has helped tens of thousands of pregnant women and babies… and with you, we’re just getting started. Thank you for your donation of time and money – we couldn’t do it without you!

Helping
Healthy Births

The average cost of medical care for a premature or low birth-weight baby for the first year of life is ten times higher than a normal birth with no complications.

For every $1 spent on preventing an unhealthy birth, $6 is saved in neonatal intensive care costs, recurrent hospital and medical expenses paid by Medicaid, exceptional and remedial education, child abuse and neglect investigations, and disability and dependency costs.
