A partnership of the following West Michigan organizations has been named as one of only twenty sites nationwide, and the only site in Michigan, to host the national “Rx for Child Survival” outreach campaign.  The group has received a seed grant to help fund a variety of activities to address specific health issues, which on a yearly basis result in the deaths of more than 11,000,000 children ages 0-5 here in West Michigan and globally.
