Stunting in northern Syria is not just a health problem related to shape, height, and weight; unfortunately, it is a gateway to serious diseases due to the weak immune system associated with their small size.
This is just one aspect of the tragedy. The real tragedy of Stunting in northern Syria is living with this problem and not considering it a medical condition that requires care and treatment. Your intervention was a significant change and a radical shift in the lives of children who were rescued from growth failure by your donation.
Your donations have allowed our children to live like other children, to be happy as they grow taller and gain weight like their peers. This is not a trivial matter; it is a rebirth into healthier and stronger bodies!
Sadly, dwarfism is on the rise, and this is evident from the increasing number of newborns with low birth weights and cases of stunting every day.
Your intervention makes a difference.
