According to a study report carried out by US
Agency for International Development (USAID) in
1990, up to 100 million children have been saved
through improved healthcare institutions. In 2008
alone, the program assisted more than 4.6 million
children and 200,000 mothers. Even though this
report reveals that they are doing something
about both the issues, a total of 5.9 million of
children under the age of five is dying. Also, a
total of 303,000 women dies on a yearly basis
during birth.

Organization (WHO) declared that 830 women still
die each day due to negligence on matters related
to pregnancy. Most of them come from poor
families hence cannot afford basic healthcare.

Fortunately, the community is being educated on
the need to embrace maternal healthcare. In fact,

healthcare systems. The USAID support programs
specialize in improving the system right from the
grass root level. The government has partnered
with the organization to provide equity in access
to the basic services.

Newborn health
Despite the fact that 2.8 million newborn
children die annually, a lot of effort are being
made to counter this problem. Most of them die
just because their mothers either had
complications while giving birth or diseases
arising after birth. The diseases often range
from sepsis, bacterial attacks in the blood are
the leading causes of death in children.

There has been a great decline in deaths related
to children since post natal care has also been
improved. USAID and the government have entered
into partnerships to increase access to high
quality during delivery and within eight days of
life. They have also involved the community at
the grass root level to reach out to mothers and
children that cannot access a health facility.
