Your gift saved Naserian's life!

By Elizabeth Griffin | Senior Writer

Thank you for saving Naserian's life!
Thank you for saving Naserian's life!

Naserian lives with her mother in Northern Kenya – an area on the verge of famine because it is close to Somalia and drought has engulfed it.

We met Naserian when her mother brought her to an emergency nutrition clinic. The two-year-old girl could not walk. Could not talk. And could not stop crying. She was sick from hunger. And her mother had no food to give to her.

Then something miraculous happened, because of you …

A change began the moment two-year-old Naserian ate her first Nutripacket—a powerful peanut-butter like paste that is packed with specially formulated nutrients, minerals, and vitamins.

Naserian was malnourished and her tummy hurt from hunger. But your gift provided emergency nutrition for her. When she began eating her first Nutripacket she stopped crying immediately!

Nutripackets are life-saving for Naserian and other little ones like her. This ‘miracle’ packet gives a malnourished child everything she needs to gain weight and be healthy.

Thanks to your gift, starving children in remote, hard to reach areas are being restored to health!

Thank you for giving emergency nutrition to Naserian and saving her life!
