About
The Best Shot Foundation focuses global awareness and political engagement on childhood pneumonia. Our mission and our work is motivated by the belief that increased public commitment will drive increased health resource allocation. The following four facts guide our efforts:
- It’s inexcusable for even a single child to die needlessly.
- Pneumonia is huge – it kills more kids around the world than any other disease (according to UNICEF, pneumonia is deadlier than malaria, measles, and HIV/AIDS combined).
- Practical solutions such as inexpensive vaccines and antibiotics would save half of these young lives.
- You can do something simple and effective to help save these children right now.
Pnock Out Pneumonia is part of a global movement to bring greater attention to this deadly disease. This November 12, pneumonia advocates around the world will come together to commemorate World Pneumonia Day.
