Dear Donors,
Thank you for your generous support toward improving nutrition for premature babies in Nigeria. Your kindness brings hope to families whose newborns are struggling to survive their first fragile weeks of life.
Each year, thousands of premature babies in Nigeria die within the first month. Many rural health facilities lack fortified milk, feeding kits, incubators, and trained neonatal staff. Families in low-income communities are unable to afford specialized feeding support. Your donation will help provide fortified breast milk, nutritional supplements, hygiene materials, and feeding kits to hospitals and rural clinics caring for these infants. It will also support the training of mothers and health workers on safe breastfeeding techniques and neonatal nutrition, helping babies gain weight steadily and reducing preventable deaths.
However, more support is still needed before activities can begin fully. We kindly encourage you to share this project and consider further contributions so these newborns can receive the nutrition they urgently need.
Thank you for standing with these vulnerable babies and their families.
Warm regards,
Joy Ojochogwu Etubi
