About this Petition Petition Letter

Sign a petition asking President Obama to place child-friendly global health programs - such as those to prevent and treat child pneumonia and diarrhea - at the heart of a robust Foreign Affairs budget request.

Children in the world's poorest country need access to the same vaccines and medicines that protect our children.  Increasing access to vaccines and low cost medicines will protect the lives of millions of children around the world who are losing their lives to these preventable and treatable diseases.

The US government's prioritization of these leading killers is our best chance to save millions of young lives and will help forge a healthier and happier future for all of our children.

Please make child-friendly global health programs a priority

Dear President Obama,

As you release your funding priorities for FY 2011, we ask that you place child-friendly global health programs - such as those to prevent and treat child pneumonia and diarrhea - at the heart of a robust Foreign Affairs budget request.

Children in the world’s poorest country need access to the same vaccines and medicines that protect our children. Increasing access to vaccines and low cost medicines will protect the lives of millions of children around the world who are losing their lives to these preventable and treatable diseases.

The US government's prioritization of these leading killers is our best chance to save millions of young lives and will help forge a healthier and happier future for all of our children.
