Around the world, 195 million children suffer from the effect of malnutrition, with 90 percent living in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. The stakes are high.
Every year, malnutrition contributes to at least one-third of the eight million deaths of children under the age of five.
But the story does not have to end there.
Thanks to the support of caring people like you, Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres medical teams are using innovative strategies to save lives and help malnourished children regain -- and keep -- their health.
Together we can rewrite the story of malnutrition.
Yes, we can!
