All around the world, women and children struggle to find the proper resources needed for a healthy life, even today. Every second we wait is an extra towards someone else's suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is why we strongly ask Canada to continue standing by the Global Financing Facility. Otherwise, up to 16 million additional children could die by 2045, a number we can not risk facing. The GFF will prevent this by mobilizing domestic resources, donor funding, and World Bank financing. More importantly, it supports sustainable, country-owned health systems that ensure mothers survive childbirth and children grow up healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many lives are at stake, and it is up to us to make sure that they do not go to waste. However, we can not do this without Canada's help. We urge you to consider our request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
