Malnutrition is a chronic lack of access to the nutrients the human body needs to work. Treating malnutrition with food is not enough. We need your help to continue providing life-saving care.
Story
Malnutrition is about more than hunger. Its about healthcare.
Children with severe malnutrition struggle to fight off deadly diseases such as malaria, pneumonia or measles. Even giving food itself can bring on dangerous medical complications. That's why MSF teams are delivering expert care to save young lives.
Please give generously to help MSF's teams deliver life-saving care to children with malnutrition.
- £11 could pay for 44 colour-coded bands to help diagnose malnutrition in children
- £30 could pay for antibiotic treatment for three severely malnourished children
- £300 can cover the cost of an MSF doctor working in a mobile malnutrition clinic for four days
Thank you for your support.
