Dear donor,
Your donation has been extremely important to keep our project up and running.
We’d like to introduce Juliana. She’s a single mother of four, her eldest daughter is a mother herself and lives with her baby and family. Her second pregnancy was extremely high risk. Manuel was born premature at 6 months which gave him persisting cognitive development issues.
Juliana has been with Dara for 4 months. She knows the benefits that she has the right to, has received educational guidance and can breathe a little easier knowing that Manuel will have an aid just for him at school. Using her food card and the nutritional orientation she has received, she has been able to feed her family more often and much healthier meals. She has reduced the amount of fried food the family eats and has been savvy enough in the kitchen to entice her grandson and younger children, who are all picker eaters.
She has already signed up for an entrepreneurship and income generation project that began in January of 2023. She’s excited about the future and embraces positive change in her life.
You made it all possible! With your help, families like Juliana’s have increased the quality of the food at home, making everyone healthier.
Thank you!
Best wishes,
Dara Institute Team
