We continue to see the impact of using Nucleo in the lives of the children.
A child who joined the afterschool programme this year was very quiet and didn’t want to speak with anyone. We provide a meal each day for the children but he struggled to finish his food and hated the supplement - mainly because he didn’t know the reason for it.
Different team members explained to him that Nucleo is good for him and for his health. But it’s been challenging to get him to drink it. It was also hard to see him not show any interest in learning or playing with other kids.
However, we are starting to see positive changes, there is a resurgence of energy and joy in him. He has started to enjoy playing with the other children although he still struggles with learning.
He will often come to the team members with his mouth open to show that he has finished drinking his Nucleo without any supervision!
We are happy that we are able to help him and that he is growing in energy and social skills. The regular food and Nucleo supplement are a big part of this, progress has been slow, but it is happening!
