Embrace's mission is to improve healthcare in low-resource settings to help vulnerable newborns survive and thrive. The organization was founded at Stanford University's Institute of Design in 2008, when a group of graduate students were challenged to help families in the poorest regions of the world by designing an intervention for neonatal hypothermia that cost a fraction of the price of a state-of-the-art incubator. The students developed the Embrace infant warmer, an innovative, cost-effective device to assist low birth weight and premature infants suffering from hypothermia. Today, Embrace operates as a program of Thrive Networks, an international NGO working to improve the health and well-being of underserved communities in Asia and Africa through evidence-based programs and technologies. Both Embrace and Thrive Networks believe in integrating appropriate technology with training and monitoring to support health workers and facilities in low-resource settings.Embrace Address
