Reducing Neonatal Mortality
Bridging the Gap in Newborn Survival
Keeping Babies Alive is a nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing preventable neonatal mortality in low-income countries and underserved communities in the United States. We work at the intersection of newborn survival, maternal-child health, and health system improvement.
Our Integrated Model
Our approach combines immediate frontline support with long-term, data-driven strategy:
- Clinical Excellence: Providing essential newborn resuscitation education to frontline providers.
- Data-Driven Impact: Utilizing the BABIES Matrix to pinpoint exactly where interventions can save the most lives.
- Practical Systems: Designing culturally responsive solutions that strengthen care from the moment of delivery through the first month of life.

We empower frontline healthcare teams by providing essential education in newborn resuscitation and immediate interventions. By equipping providers with the knowledge to manage the "Golden Minute" of birth, we help ensure that families in low-resource and underserved areas have access to the timely care necessary to save lives during the first 28 days of life
Data-Driven Interventions

Using evidence-based tools like the BABIES Matrix, we pinpoint exactly where and why neonatal deaths are occurring. This purposeful use of data allows us to move beyond guesswork, creating targeted strategies and measurable impacts that drive accountability and improve outcomes for the most vulnerable populations.

Sustainable System Strengthening
We believe lasting change happens through collaboration rather than outside imposition. We partner with local clinicians, hospitals, and stakeholders to build long-term capacity and design culturally responsive solutions that strengthen the entire continuum of care, from delivery through the first month of life.
