One of the biggest hurdles in combating poverty in India is dealing with malnutrition. Malnutrition is a deficiency disease that occurs when children are not provided with sufficient nutrients in their diet. In poorer regions in India, this disease is rampant. Partner with the best NGO in India, World Vision, and help us save malnourished children and conduct childhood rescue.
One of the best NGO in India, World Vision works tirelessly toward helping impoverished communities and conducting childhood rescue. Below is a story from the community, where World Vision India helped save malnourished children through innovative solutions during the difficult times of the pandemic.
Kavita Devi was worried because her son Shivam was looking weak, irritable, and malnourished. Under normal circumstances, she would turn to WV India’s Community Health Facilitators (CHFs) who look at the health of children and screen them for malnourishment. But because of COVID-19 the usual screening for Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) children was abruptly stopped due to national/local lockdowns and physical distancing measures implemented to curb the spread of the pandemic.
