Food for a Mother & Baby

Moms and babies experiencing poverty lack the consistent, healthy food they need to grow. By providing fortified nutritional supplements, you can empower them to thrive during the baby’s first year.

It’s more than just meals.

Hunger is one of the greatest challenges families in poverty face, and babies are especially vulnerable. This gift provides urgent nutrition for mothers and infants during their most critical stage of growth.



Your gift will:

Supporting moms and babies through pregnancy, birth and the critical first year.
