    Pneumonia, the single largest cause of death of children worldwide, kills more than 800,000 children each year. With vaccination rates at only 49%, we’ve got work to do to save lives.

    It takes a village to give more of the world’s people access to vaccines and Shot@Life is fortunate to have wonderful partners. Our UN partners do the on-the-ground work of getting vaccines to people all around the world. U.S. membership organizations partner in support of our grassroots advocacy program. Our funding partners help make the global immunization and our U.S. advocacy work possible. And we all, together, raise awareness about global vaccine inequity and the lifesaving power of vaccines.
