Project report :  malnutrition kids need your suport again 

At 56 percent, Burundi's child stunting prevalence is among the highest in the world; stunting levels among children under 5 have only dropped by 2 percentage points between 2010 and 2016–2017. Similarly, underweight and wasting prevalence’s have remained virtually unchanged over the same period.

In several provinces of Burundi, numerous children suffer from malnutrition, primarily caused by poverty and lack of information.
Among them, some suffer from severe acute malnutrition (SAM), a condition that directly threatens their survival.
Children with severe acute malnutrition have weakened immune systems,
making them highly susceptible to common diseases such as malaria, respiratory infections, and intestinal parasites,
and they are at greater risk of death. To address this severe acute malnutrition, salimadi, with support from GG,
tirelessly combats this devastating crisis.

Some family shares the impact of the project on her daughter's health: "Her body was changing, she was losing her hair and vomiting after every meal. But after starting the treatment, my daughter improved; she is much better now. Honestly, I don't know what I would have done without the help received." She was gravely ill, suffering from severe acute malnutrition (SAM), and her mother feared for her life due to the many challenges and the lack of means to treat her. Today, she is getting well.

We need your support for starting 2025 and we will be able to report the product for your next support

The beneficiaries of this project are children under 5 years old. According to head of the Kwisumo health center, the project's support helps many families. "We try to follow up well, and we notice that there is really a change within the community," he explains. The screening of acute malnutrition cases follows a well-defined process. Trained community health workers consult the children; cases of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) without medical complications are referred to the outpatient therapeutic service, while those with complications are directed to the district hospital for therapeutic stabilization. Follow-up sessions for outpatient SAM children take place once a week, every Thursday

However, despite this support, many challenges persist. Due to the poverty of families, medicines intended for sick children are often shared with the whole family. Some families consider these medicines as food and believe that a child cannot consume them alone. This delays the recovery of sick children, and sometimes children are treated for a longer period than expected. "This situation leads to an insufficiency of inputs, as prolonged use for the same child depletes resources more quickly. This poses a major challenge for us," explains Wilson, thanking the project and the support they receive.

Since the beginning of this project Save life Make difference has been received $250 and has been shared to 5 family of kids of malnutrition

Malnutrition is on the rise in Herat, while the Burundi health system is reaching breaking point 

In the course of the past two months, since the prise de pouvoir in place, which has been the evolution of the health situation in Bujumbura

In the entire country, the health system risks collapsing while the needs are considerable; This is also reflected in what we observe in Hérat. Access to health care was already a major problem in Burundi long before the seizure of power, but today the situation has further deteriorated, as most international aid has been suspended, including funding , by the World Bank, of the essential care and primary health program of the WHO in the provinces of the country especially in Bujumbura, Gitega, Makamba, Muramvya, Mwaro, Kirundo, Muyinga, Ngozi Kayanza, Cankuzo, Ruyigi, Bubanza, cibitoke, rutana rumonge, .. The health establishments of the region are either in the process of closing or reduced to providing minimum services with the few resources still available. We have no perspective on what will happen to these establishments. People are unemployed and in a situation of great precariousness, they cannot pay for private care, and some of the humanitarian organizations that previously worked in the region have not yet resumed all of their activities.

People are unemployed and in a situation of great precariousness, they cannot pay for private care, and some of the humanitarian organizations that previously worked in the region have not yet resumed all of their activities. The regional hospital du Burundi, where MSF runs a therapeutic nutritional center (CNT) for hospitalized patients, has lost some key resources such as the director and some of the most senior members of the medical staff who left the country just before

The city is not a tomb in the hands of power in place since 2005. The result is a lack of governance in the hospital and numerous administrative challenges. Outside of the nutritional center managed by MSF, salaries have not been paid for five months, there are not enough medical supplies, and there is no money to pay for maintenance. At the same time, the rooms are full of patients and patients. In short, the needs are everywhere and the system is failing.

To save life make a difference we have set up a solidarity project to implement a place to help the most affected in the country, the problem is the lack of money to start our projects, without forgetting that the country has the most vulnerable and first poor country,

We encourage benefactors to continue helping malnourished children in Burundi

Stand with us stay with us make a donor make a wish for us
