Safe Kids Worldwide

Description

• Safe Kids Worldwide is a global organization dedicated to preventing injuries in children, the number one killer of kids in the United States. Around the world, a child dies from an unintentional injury every 30 seconds. And millions of children are injured in ways that can affect them for a lifetime.When a child dies or is seriously injured, the lives of families and entire communities are changed forever. But these tragedies dont have to happen. The important thing to remember about preventable injuries is that they are preventable. They often occur in predictable ways and can be completely avoided with the right education, awareness and planning.Safe Kids works with an extensive network of more than 400 coalitions in the U.S. and partners with organizations in 25 countries around the world to reduce injuries from motor vehicles, sports, drownings, falls, burns, poisonings and more.Since 1988, when Safe Kids was founded by the Childrens National Medical Center with support from founding sponsor, Johnson & Johnson, there has been a 60 percent decrease in the unintentional injury rate among children 19 and under.But losing one child is one too many, and we dont want any parent to have to endure the loss of a child. Thats why were calling on everyone to come together, to raise awareness and to get involved so we can ensure that all children around the world have the chance to grow up healthy and safe, and do all the great things kids were meant to do.
