Problem

In many locations where IMC works, children and their families are not informed about even the most basic hygiene practices, such as brushing teeth. By informing and training teachers, who often know little about hygiene themselves, to educate their students, IMC can provide thousands of children with lifesaving information on health and cleanliness.

The Gift

Your gift can provide health education to 250 children. Your support for children's health and hygiene education has a profound impact on communities. Children bring the knowledge they learn at school home to their families, who, in turn, often share this information with their neighbors. For each child educated, countless others will also learn. Your gift of education helps prevent health problems in children before it's too late, and even helps to reshape attitudes and practices that negatively impact the health status of entire villages.
