We have officially launched our Child Nutrition Program and need all the support we can get! This new program is focused on assisting local families in Kafountine with feeding their babies and children, ages 6 months to 5 years.

🧡 $150 feeds 25 children 🧡

On designated days each month, mothers come to our birth center with their babies for a powdered nutritional porridge. During their visit, we educate mothers on child nutrition and do cooking demonstrations showing the mothers how to prepare the porridge for their children.

Every child that attends is registered with our program so we can monitor their weight and upper arm measurements. This practice can prevent and track acute malnutrition in children.

As our program grows we will be providing this nutritional porridge for hundreds of children.

Help us sustain our mission - donate today. 🧡
