Since the last update report, The Nasio Trust's Porridge Kitchen has started supporting 26 children affected by malnutrition along with 24 of their mothers through weekly distribution of meals and assessment of the impact of the porridge on their healthcare.
The community nurse and nutritionist have been supporting the Community Livelihoods team, that leads the project, and providing their expertise through growth and weight monitoring, educating and sensitising the young mothers on hygiene and making the most out of their diet, as well as through the establishment of kitchen gardens for more long-term support.
Six out of the twenty-six children have already gained weight since their enrolment into the programme 4-months ago. The mothers involved with the project are also now going to be trained in income-generating activities so that they do not have to rely on their agricultural incomes alone.
We would like to thank everyone who has supported the Porridge Kitchen so far!
