Brief description of the situation:
Nigeria faces significant challenges in providing healthcare services to vulnerable children. Many children suffer from treatable illnesses such as malaria, diarrhea, and pneumonia, which can quickly become life-threatening if left untreated.

Improve health outcomes for vulnerable children in Nigeria by:
