One of the most serious impediments to education is stunting, a result of malnutrition early in a child's development. Stunting results in permanent damage to children's ability to reach their full potential.
In order to face this devastating problem head-on, we are setting up combined nutrition, health and education projects in areas most affected by this blight. These are zones where children are suffering from the world's highest rates of stunting.
Our projects provide these children, as early in their development as possible, with three locally sourced meals per day and the basic healthcare which then permits them developmentally to receive a quality education.
