Justice is an eight-year-old boy from Uganda who needs $375 to treat malnutrition. Due to his condition, his face and extremities are swollen and his hair is fading. He often has diarrhea and feels lethargic. Concerned that Justice doesn’t have energy like other children his age, his parents Rachel and Aggrey traveled 45 kilometers to get him treatment.
Justice is the oldest of three children. When he has enough strength, he enjoys playing soccer, making toy cars, and helping his mother fetch water for their farms.
With treatment, which will cost $375, Justice’s doctors anticipate he will make a full recovery from malnutrition and develop normally. “Thank you to everyone for helping my son,” Justice’s mother says. “I’m looking forward to learning more about his nutrition.”

Justice received successful treatment for severe malnutrition.
“Justice is feeling so much better after his treatment for malnutrition,” shares our medical partner, The Kellermann Foundation. “Most of his oedema is gone and he is back to the active little boy he was. He will continue on “plumpyNut” (a peanut-based formula) until all of his oedema is gone but his mother has learned to make nutritious food for him at home, so he should return to normal growth patterns with no stunting.”
“Justice is looking forward to returning to school when the term starts,” the Kellermann staff adds. “Mathematics is his favorite subject.”
