The Nutrition and Peer Support for HIV+ Patients program continues to be one of Hope Center Clinic’s most utilized and impactful program. In 2019, over 3,627 people attended, more than 1,1837 of which were children.
In a 2019 report by USAID, the organization estimated that approximately 554,000 people will require urgent food assistance. That is over 3% of Mali’s population! The report also estimates that 868,000 Malians (160,000 children) will experience severe acute malnutrition and require nutrition assistance.
GAIA Vaccine Foundation provides vital support to Hope Center Clinic to ensure the Nutrition and Peer Support for HIV+ Patients program runs weekly. While many in Mali are suffering from malnutrition and inadequate access to consistent healthful food, those often most at risk are members of the HIV+ community, as well as women and girls.
A donation of $10 provides a weekly meal to an HIV+ patient. A donation of $100 provides enough food for 25 people.
Thank you for your support to the Nutrition and Peer Support for HIV+ Patients program and GAIA Vaccine Foundation!
