Who We Help

Well-nourished children have stronger immune systems, making them more resistant to sickness and disease, while improving their overall health, brain development and human potential.

Well-nourished girls are more likely to stay in school and succeed in their studies, giving them better job opportunities, increased lifetime earnings and greater agency.

Well-nourished women are healthier; they also have safer pregnancies and deliver healthier babies – protecting their lives and the lives and futures of their infants.

Women and girls can have better opportunities to earn, learn, grow and lead when they have adequate nutrition. They must be empowered advocates for their own health and nutrition.

Government ownership of programs is essential. We work as an expert ally to governments, empowering them to scale up their own nutrition programming and domestic resources.

Nutrition is essential for building human capital. A well-nourished and healthy population is the foundation for the growth and economic development required to break the cycle of poverty.
