Virginie empowered by her new garden

Viginie
Dear Ryan, Mark, Mike, Kelsey, Kim, Jerri, Masako, Patricia, and Claudia,

Virginie joined Gardens for Health International (GHI) because her three year-old daughter, Carine, was malnourished. Virginie says that completing GHI’s health and nutrition program has taught her to better care for not only her daughter but her whole family. From learning how important it is to wash her hands before she begins cooking to preparing a balanced meal with four colors, she now feels better equipped and more confident as a mother to raise her children in a safe and healthy environment.

Located in the Gasabo District of Rwanda, GHI offers gardening kits and nutrition education to families in need so they can work towards better food security and overall health.

Thank you Ryan, Mark, Mike, Kelsey, Kim, Jerri, Masako, Claudia, and Patricia for donating to help empower Virginie as a mother and caregiver.
