# Vaxthenation

Did you know that for every 1 000 births recorded in South Africa about 33 infants die at birth and up to 40 children die before they reach the age of five years? To help give all South African children a fighting chance, Nedbank has launched an initiative called #Vaxthenation in support of the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund. You can help by using the hashag #Vaxthenation to raise awareness and if you have a Nedbank account, opt to link it to the children’s Affinity account.
