First Candle Awarded $11 Million Grant to Continue Fighting Infant Mortality in the U.S.; Leading Infant Health Nonprofit Launches Program to Prevent Infant Deaths

Despite our best efforts to date, the U.S. continues to rank only 28th among developed nations in infant mortality. There are more than 4,500 sudden, unexpected infant deaths each year - many of which could be prevented by placing babies to sleep in a safe environment. First Candle, the nation's leading organization dedicated to infant health and safety, has received an $11 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to conduct a ground-breaking study to prevent infant deaths.
