For a future where all children thrive,

We are a non-profit supporting healthcare systems to implement automated message and voice-based vaccination reminders for parents of newborn children.

The problem: Under-vaccination

​​Two million more children missed critical vaccines compared to four years ago. These vaccination gaps contribute to hundreds of thousands of annual deaths from preventable diseases.
Lack of knowledge about vaccine benefits, recommended schedules, and the importance of timely vaccination are some barriers that prevent parents from vaccinating their children.
Many of these barriers are addressable by simple notifications at the right time.
We collaborate to:
Create or identify suitable databases containing child birth dates and parent contact information
Design informative and convincing reminders tailored to the local context
Send SMS and voice-based reminders through automated mass-messaging systems
Reminders are low-cost and scalable, have proven effective in practice, and have strong evidence to increase vaccination coverage by several percentage points. The evidence also covers different contexts in several sub-Saharan African countries.
