Provide Lifesaving Plumpy'nut® in Horn of Africa - GlobalGiving
globalgiving.org — “The Horn of Africa is experiencing one of the worst droughts in 60 years. Food is out of reach for 11 million people in the already impoverished countries, and children are the worst hit and most vulnerable to the effects of severe acute malnutrition.

This project will provide enough Plumpy'nut® to reach 40,000 children.” View full resource at globalgiving.org
