Dear HOPE Supporter,

Thank you for supporting the health of primary school students and ensuring their future health as they enter adolescence and adulthood.

HOPE is running several medical camps providing health screenings for these children living in rural areas where access to healthcare is not always available. 

In order to keep costs down for families, children must see a physician routinely to prevent the onset of diseases.

Of particular importance is teaching students concepts and tips that will keep them healthy in the long run.

In Bangladesh, girls have a high malnutrition rate compared to boys. They are also often low in iron which has repercussions on their ability to perform well in school as fatigue weights heavy on girls who are on the anemic side.

It is important to ensure the health of Bangladesh's girls while in school so they can focus without their health hindering their futures. In addressing low iron in primary school girls you not only help keep them strong and focused in school but support their health when they grow up and become mothers of their own.

Thank you again for your support.
