Prodencio is a 22-month-old boy from the Philippines. He lives with his parents in a bamboo house and loves to play.
Prodencio has been diagnosed with severe acute malnutrition. He has thin arms and legs, and his mother is worried for his health.
“I hope that Prodencio gets well from malnutrition and finishes school someday,” she says.
Our medical partner, International Care Ministries, is requesting $268 to cover the cost of an in-home feeding program to treat Prodencio’s malnutrition. This will pay for nutrient-enriched food packs, weekly visits from medical staff, and health education for family members. Prodencio is scheduled to begin treatment on February 21.
