About us
We save the lives of malnourished children and support their families to beat hunger.
All over the world, women and girls are more likely to go hungry. And more likely to suffer from malnutrition. In fact, sixty percent of those who experience chronic hunger are female. But why is it that?
The health and wellbeing of women is paramount to the good health of all members of the family. Women are uniquely placed to lead the fight against hunger – as farmers, caregivers and business leaders.
