Briefly describe your organization (100 words maximum)
In Honduras, 40% of newborn babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) die on a daily basis from preventable deaths. These deaths are caused by infections due to the lack of adequate sanitation. 56% of the babies die daily waiting for space to become available in the NICU. The Little Angels of Honduras Club is an organization that was formed recently that strives to reduce the infant mortality rate in Honduras by assisting with the provision of optimal conditions for pregnancy, birth, and newborn care. The strategy that the organization follows has four parts: provide, support, engage, and construct. Provide is assisting with immediate needs in hospitals. Support is national education and policy change about the issue. Engage is reducing the number of high-risk teenage pregnancies. Construct involves building a new maternal and infant care hospital. The vision of this organization is to give generations of parents the gift of hope and the ability to take their babies home.

 PROJECT INFORMATION Describe the purpose of the project (100 words maximum)
Get a grant for money to buy supplies for the Little Angels of Honduras. Simple donations such as antibacterial gel, soap, newborn hats, gloves, baby clothes, bottles, diapers, and wipes help the organization out a lot because they don’t have the technology that the United States has and helps save babies lives a lot more. I would run a supply drive too to go along with the grant.
