Challenge

Many children in a remote village in Naawan municipality here in the Philippines suffer from severe malnutrition due to poverty and increasingly very poor soil and poor farm productivity. Most of their parents are marginal farmers and income from the farm is never enough to feed the family.

Solution

The project will provide highly nutritious meals which will include delicacies that Filipino family enjoy. At least this will give happiness to the children and their family and improve their health and nutrition. Aside from directly providing them with food, the project will also train the mothers how to grow their own food in the backyard and we will provide vegetable seeds in the process.

Long-Term Impact

Healthy children and their families will mean bright future for them and a vibrant community where they live where everyone help each other for their own improvement and welfare. This will also be a model on how self-reliant communities are developed.
