Every 40 seconds, the world loses a newborn to the effects of preterm birth, and babies with hypothermia are five times more likely to die in their first days of life.

13.4 million babies are born prematurely every year.
Incubators and baby warmers – and close contact with their mothers – protect infants from hypothermia. But warming devices are expensive to purchase, complicated to maintain, and require stable electricity. That makes them impossible to use in many parts of the world, leaving small and premature babies vulnerable to the deadly effects of hypothermia.

FORTUNATE
Nissima gave birth to premature twins, a boy and a girl. On her way to the hospital, her baby boy died. Her daughter was immediately placed in an Embrace incubator when she reached the hospital — and she survived. Nissima named her daughter Fortunate because she received a warm Embrace that saved her life.
