Just 1% of the U.S. federal budget goes to foreign aid. 

This small investment has helped: 
📉 Lower maternal mortality by 34% 
🌍 Cut extreme poverty by 27% 
💪 Decrease polio cases by 99% 
❤️ Save 25M lives through HIV/AIDS programs 
🦟 Decrease malaria cases by 50% 
 
Foreign aid funding saves lives.
