Superfood provided to preschool children in slums

By Shana Greene | Executive Director, Village Volunteers

Dear Donor,

If you have been a supporter in the past or better yet continue to support with a monthly donation, thank you!

We've always designed our programs to support sustainable solutions to community challenges and to use social enterprises to provide the best possible way forward for those in need.  While moringa is a social enterprise for the women who grow the trees and powder the leaves, it's the poorest children who are either orphaned or live in slums who need moringa the most and where there is either little land available to grow or the climate is not appropriate.

With malnutriont, catching children who are preschool or younger, makes all of the difference in their future successes. Using your donation, we purchase moringa from the women's groups to distribute the powdered superfood to be added to the porridge of preschoolers in regions of debilitating malnutrition. 

This is not a difficult task when we have the support of you and others. Malnutrition needs to be addressed in preschool to give every child the best start possible. Moringa is just that superfood. 

 

Thank you!

Shana
