10 Ways Johnson & Johnson Has Helped Support Healthy Births and Moms Around the World
10 Ways Johnson & Johnson Has Helped Support Healthy Births and Moms Around the World
This July Fourth, as the U.S. celebrates its birth as an independent country, we're looking back at the many ways the company has been there for new mothers and their babies in the U.S.—and beyond—for over a century.
The Fourth of July commemorates the birth of the United States as a separate nation in 1776.
Since then, the country has seen 45 presidents take the oath of office—and commemorated another special holiday, Mother's Day, 103 times over. And all of this wouldn't have been possible without continuous advances in healthcare, especially for expectant and new moms.
That's why we're taking a look at the various ways Johnson & Johnson has done its part, since its founding in 1886, to help generations of mothers and their babies live healthier lives—around the world.
