Today I want to acknowledge, a problem which we all do not want to see: hunger of children in the world. I learnt a few facts recently, which amazed me:
- Every 6 seconds a child dies of malnutrition.
- 800 million people are going hungry, mostly children*
- 50% of the world’s children are severely underweight*
- Over five million people die every year due to malnutrition. Millions more survive, but with their growth and intelligence stunted due to a lack of vital nutrients.
- Through the Nourish the Children (NTC) initiative we can participate with Nu Skin Enterprises in being a force for good around the world by providing much needed nourishment to hungry children.
Although we live in a modern world, thousands of children die every year of HUNGER!
The consequences of malnutrition in Children are:
- Infant Mortality
- Growth Stunting
- Anemia
- Decreased Learning Capacity
- Weakened Immune System
The valiant efforts of relief agencies and humanitarian organizations are to be commended; however, despite their efforts, the problem of starving and malnourished children remains. Nu Skin Enterprises believes that by combining entrepreneurship and humanitarianism with qualified relief organizations, we can truly make a difference.
So I deceded to make a difference and become an Ambassador, to help relief the hunger of children.
