PURPLE for NOVEMBER is PREMATURITY & PANCREATIC CANCER MONTH
Prematurity Awareness Month®
Every parent wants a healthy baby. But it doesn’t always happen that way. Too many babies die each year because they were born too small and too soon. Premature birth is the leading cause of death for newborns in the US and is the leading cause of death for children under 5 worldwide.
One in every ten babies is born too soon in our country. The rate is even higher for African American women. We need to change this. Together we can help more babies be born healthy and strong.
Help raise awareness about premature birth at Facebook.com/worldprematurityday. Share stories, give hope and save lives.
