It Claims 5 Million Children Every Year

Did you know that diarrhea claims the lives of millions of children in Nigeria? Every day a child under 5 years old dies of diarrhea! Children at that age are very active. They crawl, they fall, they play every where. They pick things from the floor and put it in their mouths and because their immune systems are not strong enough to fight Diarrhea like adults can, they fall fatally ill. They begin to stool uncontrollably and become dehydrated. Their skin becomes dry and cracking. They look mal-nourished with bulgy eyes and visible ribs.

 
To help save our children, Lifebouy will be making a donation to the cause of defeating Diarrhea. So far we have 3 million pledges, we have over 1 million pledges to go. We need your help, all you have to
do is take a pledge, join your voice to millions of others that want to put a stop to this plague.
Just click www.lifebuoypledge.com/pledge and tell as many friends as possible, you would have saved a life.

You can also pledge by texting the word DEFEAT to 20050 or go to the FACEBOOK page www.facebook.com/lifebuoysoap. Pledge now! Pledging closes on October 15th, the Global Hand Washing Day.

Pledge and help save a life today.

Thank you
On behalf of Nigerian mothers
Lifebuoy Child Health Initiative

A short line about the power of ORT will also help.
