Thanks to more than 106 wonderful people, just in the year 2023 we have rescued over 973 children from malnutrition and hunger in the Democratic Republic of the Congo as well as Mauritania, and taught over 800 parents about farming and nutrition.

As children are weighed and fed, parents undergo a practical course in basic nutrition and agriculture. We teach them to cultivate edible plants that thrive in hot and dry climates. At the same time, working in our garden serves as a form of payment for the nutritional therapy received by the child.
After the therapy, we encourage parents to establish a home garden. Upon leaving the nutrition center, they know how to grow vegetables and prepare well-balanced meals.
Our staff conducts unannounced weight checks on children. These assessments extend beyond nutrition – we also examine children for any developmental issues.

Last year, we managed to cover all the operating costs of the Foundation from donations for statutory purposes, which is why we were able to allocate 100% of project-related donations directly to on-site help!
Our nutrition centers in Ntamugenga (Congo DR) and Kaédi (Mauritania) together admit up to 165 children weekly. Your support not only helps the child whose story we share on this page but also many other children in need of nutritional therapy.
Of course! Just send us an email. You don't need to justify your decision in any way. However, we encourage you to continue following our social media channels so you can see how the children are growing up healthy thanks to your support!
You have a week to determine whether your donation will remain at the nutrition center. We are aware that one’s circumstances may change. Should you wish to request a refund for your donation, please send us an email within a week of your donation.
