When Mummy Mariam first came to us, her daughter was severely malnourished. Her bones were visible, her tiny body too weak to sit or crawl. Like many mothers in underserved communities around Lagos, she lived with the daily fear of losing her child to hunger.
Through your generous donations to the Nutritious Meal Plan Intervention (NUMEPLAN), Mariam received fortified food items, while her mother learned how to prepare simple, affordable meals to rebuild her child’s strength. Slowly, Mariam began to recover gaining weight, smiling more, and eventually crawling for the very first time.
Because of your giving in the past quarter, we have been able to:
Provide nutritious meal to additional two children.
Train 2 mothers on nutrition and hygiene to sustain healthy feeding practices at home.
