Support Global Child Health

african-child_1Mamas love to put our money where our values are, so we recently checked out The Child Health Site, an online resource for information about global child health initiatives. The site also offers a Child Health Site Store where you can buy gorgeous jewelry, clothing, and other goodies made by local artisans and support childhood disease prevention at the same time. So give it a click to learn about ongoing efforts to prevent AIDS in Africa, put an end to starvation in India, and treat TB right here in the U.S. And when you do, don’t forget to click on the “Donate Free” tab. Each click represents money that goes directly to child health.
