A HEALTHY BEGINNING
In developing countries, many new moms don’t have access to proper nutrition that fuels baby’s growing brain in the first 1000 days of life. Oftentimes, they lack the education and medical guidance that will give their babies the best start possible. When a baby begins life malnourished or unhealthy, it’s an uphill battle to catch up.
However, kids who thrive before they’re born, and who receive adequate nutrition and healthcare as babies, are better prepared to grow up strong and healthy.
We have teamed up, with World Vision, at ROAR to provide funds to help moms and babies get the brightest beginning they can.
A $10.00 donation will help women & children in communities throughout the African country of Zambia.
These donations provide the following:
• Health worker visits pregnant women to give them information & the help they need.
• Help monitoring children’s growth and nutrition
• Vitamin A to prevent blindness and reduce risk of illness or death from common infections
• Education for moms and dads on the food and nutrients their children need, where to find them and how to prepare them.
Any gifts help when we put all our donations together!
HOW IT WORKS
Kids will hear about this exciting project throughout the week at ROAR and learn how to add leaves to the “giving tree” with each donation. We’ll also learn about real families in Zambia!
