Every 3 seconds a child dies in the developing world for lack of access to the most basic health products and services. These deaths are entirely preventable. We have the solutions to stop the senseless suffering of millions of families, but what we lack is a reliable and sustainable system for delivering these solutions to those most in need. Living Goods dramatically reduces child mortality in the developing world by delivering affordable and effective health products to those most in need. We operate an integrated community health model that delivers essential health products, services and education across maternal, neonatal, and child health. Our primary health objective is to reduce under 5 child mortality and morbidity by at least 15%. To achieve this goal we focus on the health needs that drive the majority of needless deaths but can be treated or prevented at very low cost. In East Africa this places our focus on 5 key areas:

1. Preventing and treating malaria
2. Preventing and treating diarrhea
3. Treating and/or referring acute respiratory infections
4. Supporting healthy pregnancies and providing newborn care
5. Reducing the burden of under-nutrition 

The Living Goods system achieves health impact through effective education, behavior change strategies, distribution of vital health products, and through referrals for secondary care. The objective of our model is not just to improve access to basic health products. Our aim is to dramatically reduce child mortality. To do this we must develop strong connections with our clients and influence them to adopt healthy behaviors. Our health interventions span a range of engagement including: training, client listening, health education, influence targeting, providing a reliable source of low-cost essential health products, and promptly referring clients to secondary care when needed. The Living Goods systems blends the best practices of effective patient care and customer relationship management to build a sustainable and scalable system to defeat the diseases of poverty.
