Motherhood is not for the faint-hearted. Mothers struggle to do the best they can for their children — making sure they’re happy, healthy and know they are loved.<\/p>\n
In many parts of the world, this is a truly heroic feat. As we watch ongoing coverage of the tragedy in Nepal or the heartbreak in Nigeria, we remember that mothers must weather even the most trying times to care for their children. They are stopped by nothing; they persevere to do the best they can for their kids.<\/p>\n
We have the chance to make it just a little bit easier for some of these mothers.<\/p>\n
The United States government has been a leader in global health and foreign development for decades. Support from the U.S. provides mothers with the extra help they need to protect their children and changes millions of lives for the better.<\/p>\n
Perhaps no issue better illustrates this than the U.S.’s leadership on HIV and AIDS.<\/p>\n
