WELCOME to the ROTARY CLUB OF WINNIPEG

April is Maternal and Child Health Month

Maternal and Child Health Support initiatives from Rotary make health care available to mothers and children so they can live longer, grow stronger and have a brighter future. Rotary makes high-quality health care available to vulnerable mothers and children around the world.

We expand access to quality care, so mothers and children everywhere can have the same opportunities for a healthy future. An estimated 5.9 million children under the age of five die each year because of malnutrition, inadequate health care, and poor sanitation — all of which can be prevented.
