Seraphina is now improving the health of her family

IMAG0502
Dear Stacey,

Thanks to your support, Seraphina and her children are now on the path to good health. We met Seraphina when two of her children were brought into the health center diagnosed with severe acute malnutrition. After over six months in our program, through a combination of seeds, training, and small livestock, Seraphina now has the resources to improve the health of her family. She is growing carrots, amaranth, soy, cassava leaves, orange sweet potatoes, beets and spinach in her home garden.  The trainings that she says have had the most impact are good nutrition, gender-based violence, and  hygiene and savings, because they have given her the resources to provide her own solutions. Most importantly, her children have gained weight and are no longer ‘in the red’.

Thank you Stacey, for your incredible generosity, and for changing one life and allowing her to change others.
