Pakistan has been reported to have one of the highest levels of prevalence of child malnutrition compared to other developing counties. Malnutrition, infants’ mortality, and stunted growth of children have been the most serious health issues which have been neglected deliberately over the past four decades
According to the National Nutrition Survey,
33% of all children were underweight, nearly 48% were underdeveloped, 15%
lacked basic health.
On Saturday, 02nd
November 2024, HOPE – A Health NGO in
Pakistan, distributed, boiled eggs among the children and patients at
Korangi, 100 Quarter.
An egg a day helps keep
malnutrition away. One egg per day for 6 months leads to significant
improvements in height and weight. Compared to children in established urban
areas, children in rural communities are relatively more vulnerable. Early
childhood undernutrition has a negative effect on the development of the brain
and motor skills. These consequences may cause difficulties as an adult. Thus,
enhancing nutrition in underdeveloped areas is a crucial economic objective.
Our team's motivation is
increases when their efforts are recognized and appreciated, which motivates
them to work even more. Therefore, we extend a warm welcome to everyone who
looks forward to contribute to the goal of HOPE
- An NGO in Pakistan.
These activities are carried out
under the supervision of Dr.
Mubina Agboatwalla - A Child Specialist in Karachi, in the selection of
the sites for the food distribution. The overwhelming deeds along with the
tireless efforts of HOPE, have always been worth admiring. The acknowledgement
and appreciation of our work boosts up our team’s motivation level committing them
to put in even greater effort in doing so.
