Rony is a seven-year-old student from the Philippines.
Rony was recently diagnosed with malnutrition, a condition that results from consuming too few calories, proteins, and nutrients. Beginning on July 6, Rony will receive at-home malnutrition treatment through our medical partner, International Care Ministries (ICM).
ICM will provide Rony with nutrient enriched food packs to help him gain weight and achieve optimal physical and mental development. The program will also teach his family about proper nutrition, sanitation, and organic gardening to better care for their son. ICM is requesting $173 to cover the cost of Rony’s ongoing care.
“We hope Rony will gain weight and recover from his malnutrition so he can grow up to be a successful man,” says Rony’s mother.
