Merging our projects
By Catharina van den Bosch | Founder/Director

We want to thank you for your ongoing support of the vulnerable babies in Tigray. The activities have been and still are life saving!
We have reviewed our projects on GlobalGiving and we felt that this project and the project by the name of Vulnerable babies has many overlaps and it is easier for us to merge the 2 projects as they both serve the vulnerable babies. For this reason we will deactivate "the feed 50 at risk babies" project and your donation will automatically be re-directed to the project for vulnerable babies. No action from your side is required and we hope you will continue supporting us in our work.
Thank you for your understanding!

Triple Triplets....

Triplets 1
We are so incredibly grateful to our faithful donors. You have no idea what impact your donation has on th lives of many babies who would not survive without the lifesaving support We are able to give.
Last week not one, not two but THREE sets of triplets were referred to us for baby milk support. We were able to assist the needy families. One mother had not survived the birth, two mothers were not able to produce enough breastmilk. One of the two mothers had also some psychological issues and this resulted in the babies not receiving the care they needed and we have taken these babies on a temporary basis while the mother is receiving counselling. 2 of these babies are currently in hospital as they were malnourished.
Thank you again for making it possible for us to help these needy babies and their families!

Babies in need
By Catharina van den Bosch | Founder/Director

Meet farmer Gebremeskel. He is a now a father of four children. He was quite shocked when his wife told him that she was pregnant with their fourth child. It worried him as his last harvest had failed and he was scrambling to feed his family. He took on the occasional daily labor job which provided enough to feed his family one meal a day. How was he going to feed another mouth? He was stressed and he when he watched his wife who was so thin even when her pregnancy progressed.
When it came time for delivery she was weak and the delivery didn't progressas expected and lasted for many hours before the baby finally arrived. Unfortunately his wife did not survive the delivery. Leaving him a widower with four children. If he had already problems feeding his family one meal a day, how could he afford buying tins of baby formula. He managed to beg a little bit of money from family and friends to buy one tin of formula which he used sparingly while he observed the deteriorating health of his new born baby.. He feared that it wouldn't be long before he would loose her.
A story we encounter on a regular basis and we are so thankful for your assistance which helps us to assist 50 babies every month. It takes the stress away from the family and it keeps the baby healthy. On behalf of their families a heartfelt thank you!
