July is designated as Maternal and Child Health Month, highlighting our focus on improving the health and well-being of mothers and children. This month is an opportunity for our clubs and members worldwide to focus on initiatives and projects that address maternal and child health challenges. Key aspects of our work in these areas are:
- Reducing Maternal Mortality
- Improving Child Health
- Implementing Community-Based Solutions
- Empowering Communities
Here are a few ideas for projects your club and district can undertake, perhaps Uniting for Good with other clubs or organizations:
- Hosting or participating in childhood educational programs
- Sponsoring and publicizing immunization drives
- Providing birthing kits
- Hosting mobile health clinics
- Funding training for healthcare professionals
