Today, I learned that childhood vaccines, which I was fortunate to get when I was little, could prevent up 2-3 million deaths per year. I love that New Incentives gives conditional cash transfers to people in need in Nigeria when their new babies are vaccinated. I truly hope that more people will be incentivized to get their newborns vaccinated!

We provide cash incentives for childhood vaccinations. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways known to save lives.


New Incentives’ mission is to save lives in a way that does the **most good per dollar**.
Guided by evidence, we provide cash incentives to increase childhood vaccination rates.

- We [raise awareness](https://www.newincentives.org/blog-posts/awareness-activities) about the benefits of childhood vaccinations.
- We [provide cash incentives](https://www.newincentives.org/blog-posts/a-day-in-the-life-abubakar-aliyu-field-officer) at government clinics after children receive vaccinations.
- We [help improve the vaccine supply chain](https://www.newincentives.org/blog-posts/supporting-government-partners-with-vaccine-supply-efforts) to ensure enough vaccines are available at clinics.

Together, these efforts are proven to double vaccination rates and save lives.

As of March 2024, New Incentives has reached more the 3 million infants in northern Nigeria.
