Your Gift of Emergency Nutrition Arrived!

By Cathy Herholdt | Communications Director

You saved a child's life with emergency nutrition!
You saved a child's life with emergency nutrition!

Imagine the relief little Mohammed's mom felt when her son, who was severely malnourished, received emergency nutrition packets that will nourish his frail body immediately! You helped make this possible with your gift to provide emergency nutrition packets to starving children, like Mohammed, in Somalia. Thank you!

Watch this 1-minute video and see your gift in action as Mohammed receives these life-saving nutrition packets: https://youtu.be/pb7xpT-qC48

With your support, hundreds of children in villages across northern Somalia, where severe drought has led to near-famine conditions, received these nutrition packets. These packets, called PlumpyDoz, are filled with a peanut-based paste that is packed with powerful nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. They begin to work immediately, restoring a starving child to health. 

Thank you for saving lives in drought-affected communities!
