Vaccinate Children and Prevent NINE Diseases
Organization information
Ouelessebougou Alliance
Location: Millcreek, United States of America
Summary
Many of the diseases that kill children in Mali are entirely preventable. Routine childhood vaccinations save lives; however, in remote Ouelessebougou many parents neither have access to nor can afford to immunize their children. This project will provide free vaccinations for children ages 0 - 5 for 9 life-threatening diseases including polio, yellow fever and measles. The Alliance partners with the Ouelessebougou Hospital and plans to distribute vaccinations to 4,000 children in 2021.
