38 million children under 5 years old are suffering from severe hunger—most of them live in Africa. Thankfully, World Concern is providing emergency Nutripackets to malnourished children.
- These are a peanut-based supplement packed with all the essential nutrients, vitamins, healthy fats, and protein needed to restore a malnourished child to health.
- Nutripackets: powerful daily packets consumed by a child typically for about 90 days—saves lives and nourishes children to health!
Children are assessed using a band to measure the circumference of their arm. If they measure in the green zone, the child is healthy. Yellow means malnourished, and red means severely malnourished. Many of the children being reached are measuring in the “red zone” and are severely, dangerously malnourished. With so many hungry children, much help is needed.
