Your partnership helped save her and other children from malnutrition

Goats nibble at pieces of trash as brown, dirty water trickles beneath their feet. The smell of sewage hangs in the air. Painted cement structures stand out against tin walls. This is the city slum — the place Miriam calls home.

Many of the mothers living here have been abandoned, left to care for their children alone. They do their best to take on small jobs to bring home food, but it is seldom enough to feed hungry stomachs and nourish growing bodies.

As a result Miriam and other children were malnourished and dangerously close to death. Realizing something had to be done, a local woman named Aicha* decided to intervene. She reached out to our local field team members to see if they could help.

“We knew we could do better than just provide food,” our team member shared. “We could help get these children back to a healthy weight.”

Thanks to your support, Unto’s local staff teams began delivering meals and measuring the children’s growth. Within three months the children were healthy and thriving, no longer malnourished and on the brink of starvation. Many families have also heard about Jesus.

Your gifts to ship meals and other critical supplies make all the difference for children like Miriam — reviving their health and revealing the hope of Jesus even in the toughest places on earth.
