Our Issues
Our Mission is to Give Every Child a Strong Start in Life
This is why Save the Children Action Network focuses on two critical issues:
expanding early childhood education in the U.S. and saving moms and kids worldwide.

Ending Preventable Deaths Abroad
Globally, 15,000 children under age 5 die every day from causes we know how to prevent.
Additionally, 800 women die every day from complications in pregnancy and childbirth.
