We want to express our gratitude with you, due to your donations, we continue to arrive to the Wixárika Indigenous Community in the northern Sierra of Jalisco, and we continue providing alimentary security and fighting children malnutrition in the region. Due to the pandemic, caused by Covid-19, it was challenging to us to start teaching and applying this new health and hygiene protocols, but with effort and dedication we keep arriving to this communities with the only objective of making a difference in their lives, and always taking care of the safety of our staff and the community.
In the last 4 months we interacted with 1000 children, we weighted them, measure them and gave them their alimentary complement for every day consumption, we also gave 4 special educational talks to the mothers and fathers of this children, the new topics, on these educational talks, were the prevention strategies for Covid-19, best and nutritious ways to prepare and cook food, alimentary hygiene and its importance for health, also topics that relate to human development and healthy relationships between family members.
Our interactions also include the delivery of our ONIfórmula, in these 3 months we manage to deliver 27,000 doses of our ONIformula, and we manage to bring alimentary security to 300 families. This interaction is vital for the community, due to the geographic location and the lack of access to water, we want to continue with our interaction in this community, that so much need it, and it would be impossible without you, we want to thank you and to invite you to keep donating to make this community life better and build together a space for development.
We share with you a small video that shows the work that ONI carries out in the Sierra Wixárika in indigenous communities; all thanks to your donations and so we can change the lives of many children with malnutrition.
On this occasion, we want to thank your generosity and thus be the difference in being able to change the lives of the girls and boys who are beneficiaries of the ONI in the indigenous communities located in the northern highlands of Jalisco.Thanks to your donation, we were able to ensure their diet with quality nutrients for their healthy development.

Dear donor,
At ONI we hope everything is fine with you and your beloved ones. On this report we would like to bring a little ray of light by telling you a little of all the possitive things that are happening linked to this quarantine. We know it has been difficult for all of us, but in the middle of all the negative effects this pandemic is causing, one thing is, for sure, shinning above all: the community love and support.
In Jalisco, we have been quarantined for almost 5 months now, but it hasn't stopped us from working in benefit of our children, and that has inspired some groups, companies, and individuals who felt the need of supprting causes like ours by donating food, money, time and resources. The most clear example of this is GlobalGiving, who, thanks to all the supporters like you, were able to give us 2 economic donations that translated in hundreds of children receiving their nutritional complement every month; this donations also helped us respond to further needs of the families like bringing basic groseries to those who have lost their jobs.
We can't say thank you enough for making possible to keep on working for our children. We still need you, our children needs us.

Querido donante,
En ONI esperamos que todo este bien contigo y tus seres queridos. En este reporte nos gustaría mostrar un pequeño rayo de luz al contarte un poco de todo lo positivo que ha sucedido ligado a esta cuarentena. Sabemos que ha sido difícil para todos, pero en medio de todos los efectos negativos que esta pandemia está causando, una cosa ha salido a relucir: el apoyo y cariño de la comunidad.
En Jalisco hemos estado en cuarentena por casi 5 meses, pero esto no nos ha detendio en nuestro trabajo en beneficio de nuestros niños, lo que ha inspirado a algunos grupos, compañías, e individuos que sintieron la necesidad de apoyar causas como la nuesra donando comida, dinero, tiempo y recursos. El ejemplo más claro de esto es GlobalGiving, quien gracias a todos los donantes como tú, pudo hacernos 2 donaciones económicas que se tradujeron en cientos de niños que recibieron su Oniformula cada mes; estas donaciones también nos ayudaron a responder a otras necesidades de las familias como alimentos de la canasta básica a aquellos que perdieron sus empleos.
No podemos agradecerte lo suficiente por hacer posible que sigamos trabajando para nuestros niños. Aún te necesitamos, nuestros niños nos necesitan.
Dear Donor:
Thank you for all your support! This report, as you can imagen, is about Covid-19 and how it has had a huge impact in everyone of us; plenty things have changed and we are no longer able to do many activities, but it hasn't stopped us from doing what we care the most: child nutrition.
As we all know, a well nourished child is stronger, diseases don't get too serious and has a better mood. In a global health crisis, as the one that we are facing right now, children are more exposed to the consecquenses that can come with it, such as economic issues, lack of food, family diseases, among others; that's why we cannot stop caring for them and right now we need to be stronger for them, we must protect their health at any cost.
At ONI, we take very serious our commitment with the children and their families, doing our best to keep on producing Oniformula (even more than what we produce in a regular basis), and keeping it at a very low cost, even giving it for free in cases where the family already lost their jobs due to the meassures of protection. This situation requires the best of every single one of us that conform ONI's family, we are working while protecting our most vulnerable team members, bringing attention to all the children that need it, and trying to remain active as many are closing their doors.
It hasn't been easy, but we are very glad that we have supporters and alies that care a lot about our job, just like you, making it possible day to day.
Thank you so much!
With love, ONI's team

Querido donante:
¡Muchas gracias por todo tu apoyo! Este reporte, como podrás imaginar, es sobre la enfermedad de Covid-19 y el gran impacto que ha tenido en cada uno de nosotros; muchas cosas han cambiado y ya no podemos realizar muchas actividades, pero esto no ha evitado que continuemos con lo que más nos importa: la nutrición infantil.
Como sabemos, un niño bien nutrido es más fuerte, las enfermedades no se complican tanto y tienen un mejor estado de ánimo. En una crisis de salud global, como la que estamos enfrentando justo ahora, los niños son los que se encuentran más expuestos a sufrir las consecuencias que pueden venir con esto como problemas económicos, falta de alimentos, enfermedades familiares, entre otros; esta es la razón por la que no podemos dejar de cuidar de ellos, y justo ahora debemos ser fuertes por ellos, debemos protejer su salud a cualquier costo.
En ONI, nos tomamos muy en serio nuestro compromiso con los niños y sus familias, haciendo todo lo que podemos para continuar produciendo Onifórmula (aún más de la que producimos de manera regular), y manteniendola a un costo realmente bajo, incluso dándola gratis a casos donde la familia ya perdió sus ingresos debido a las medidas de protección. Esta situación requiere lo mejor de cada uno de los que formamos la familia ONI, etsamos trabajando mientras protejemos a nuestros compañeros más vulnerables, llevando atención a todos los niños que la necesitan, y tratando de mantenernos activos mientras muchos otros ya han cerrado sus puertas.
No ha sido sencillo, pero estamos muy agradecidos con todos ustedes, nuestros donantes y aliados, que se preocupan por hacer posible nuestro trabajo día a día.
¡Muchas gracias!
Con cariño, el equipo ONI
