Health and hope for Estella and her children

estella
Dear Kevin,

Estella is a single mother with two children, one of whom is enrolled in our malnutrition program. Thanks to Kevin, Estella has planted carrots, amaranth and cabbages. Her child that was malnourished has gained two kilograms over the last four months and is no longer severely malnourished.

She appreciates that she now knows how to prepare a balanced meal with “all four colors”, and she appreciates the home visits and advice from Gardens for Health’s agricultural agents. She now has health insurance for her family and has recently joined a cooperative for people living with HIV/AIDS, to work in solidarity with others in her community.

Thank you Kevin, for helping provide good health and growth to Estella and her children!
