Essential services, such as healthcare and education are basic fundamental rights at the heart of the Millennium Development Goals and are critical for ending poverty and gender inequality.

Today, 72 million children, most of them girls, will not go to school. 1,000 women will die needlessly in childbirth pregnancy. 4,000 children will be killed by diarrhea, a disease of dirty water.

The poorest people have less access to health, education and other services. Problems of hunger, malnutrition and disease afflict them most in the society. The poorest are also typically marginalized from society and have little representation or voice in public and political debates, making it even harder to escape poverty.

Thus, we at Mehaan Charitable Foundation aim to increase investment in, and access to equitable, efficient and accountable education and health services. Bringing overall growth and equality among the most needy ones. The main aims of advocating MDG 8 goals is to:

1. Eradicate Extreme Hunger and Poverty.
2. Achieve Universal Primary Education.
3. Promote Gender Equality and Empower Women.
4. Reduce Child Mortality.
5. Improve Maternal Health. Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Other Diseases.
6. Ensure Environmental Sustainability.
7. Develop a Global Partnership For Development.
