Jeanet learns about proper nutrition
Jeanet joined Gardens for Health International (GHI) because her daughter, Beneda, weighed only four and a half kilograms at eighteen months old. Before attending GHI’s health and nutrition trainings, Jeanet did not know about the health and nutritional benefits of breastfeeding. She learned that by supplementing Beneda’s diet with breast milk, she could help speed weight gain and overall nutritional health for her young child. Since January, Beneda has gained four kilos and is no longer malnourished!
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, Sean and the Green Street Foundation, for supporting Gardens for Health and helping Jeanet learn about proper nutrition for her children.
