When hunger strikes, women and children are affected the most. Malnourished mothers give birth to malnourished children, draining them of the potential to be healthy adults. Your gift of $92 will feed a pregnant or breastfeeding mother for an entire year so that her child can grow up healthy and strong.
In order to end child hunger and malnutrition, we must begin when the child is in the womb. Ensuring proper nutrition can make a definitive difference in a child's future and help break the cycle of poverty.
The World Food Program (WFP) provides pregnant and breastfeeding mothers with meals packed with essential vitamins and minerals. This ensures that their children get a healthy start by receiving the nutrients they need to grow. By providing proper nourishment for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, WFP helps to reduce child hunger and offer a brighter future free of malnutrition.
