Malnutrition is preventable
DONATE NOW
Any one off donation makes a tremendous difference in the lives of those in need.
Now, imagine the ongoing and long term impact you can have by becoming a regular donor to our organisation.
Malnutrition is preventable and treatable. So why are children still dying?
Across Somalia, 6.5 million people – around one in four – are facing severe food insecurity.
Families are already dealing with conflict, climate shocks and disease outbreaks. But at the exact moment when people face growing barriers to accessing nutritious food and reliable healthcare, last year’s crippling international aid cuts are systematically dismantling the nutrition programs they rely on. This is why we need your help.
While we are unable to fill all the gaps left by aid cuts, we are making a difference with every act of care.
Your donation today could help provide vital care, including more community screening and outreach, to prevent moderate malnutrition from becoming a life threatening emergency.

There is “no large hospital like this one” back home, she explains, referring to Bay Regional Hospital in Baidoa, Somalia. © Hareth Mohammed/MSF.
