Since we started in 1988, Safe Kids has contributed to the more than 60 percent reduction in childhood preventable injury deaths in the U.S. Our greatest wish is that we don’t lose another child to an injury that is preventable. Please help make that wish come true so that ALL kids have the chance grow up, reach their full potential, and do all the great things kids were meant to do.
