“Every Child Deserves a 5th Birthday” is an awareness-raising campaign led by U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). A child is much more likely to survive into adulthood if the severe risks of infancy can be mitigated and they reach that important milestone of their 5th birthday. By inviting individuals to remember their own 5th birthdays, they hope to inspire the global community to do more.
