First Embrace is a global health charity transforming newborn survival by scaling Kangaroo Care (iKMC), proven to reduce newborn deaths by a third.

Kangaroo Care's effects have been evidenced in over 20 randomised controlled trials across 3 decades. It unites immediate and continuous skin to skin contact, exclusive breastfeeding and training on signs of illness.

For $200 we can give a baby a week of Kangaroo Care, supporting them through the period when 75% of newborn deaths happen.

Partner with us to save newborn lives from the first embrace.
Thank you.
