John, Elisna* was just three months old when a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti in August 2021. His home and his mother’s livelihood were destroyed, and as his family struggled to recover, Elisna’s growth and development were severely stunted.
Seven months after the earthquake, worried that he was losing weight and unable to walk or talk, Elisna’s mother sought support from Save the Children. Elisna received therapeutic food and counseling, and today he’s able to say “Mama” and “Papa.”
We couldn’t be more grateful for the support and partnership of dedicated champions for children like you. Your contributions help make a life-changing difference for children like Elisna and millions of others around the world. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
