Meet Suly! She is only a year old and has four older siblings, all younger than eight.
While her parents love all of their children equally, working members of the family receive larger portions of food to enable them to contribute more back to the scarce family financial resources. Since Suly is so young, she’s not getting much to eat. This is making her lethargic and developmentally delayed.
For $525, our medical partner in Guatemala will step in and make sure Suly receives intensive nutritional therapy, giving her the necessary food and vitamins to help her resume healthy developmental growth. Let’s help her get back on track!

Suly received nutritional therapy to treat malnutrition.
Suly’s treatment was truly life-saving! The inexorable downward slide in Suly’s height and weight has stopped. She is gaining weight again for the first time in a long while, and has a lot more energy. Most importantly, this means that her brain is developing normally again! Although Suly doesn’t look too happy in the photo (as she had just been poked and prodded by the doctors), you can see the results of therapy in the vibrant texture of her hair and fullness in her face.
The parents wanted to thank all of the donors and staff for helping out their sweet child. They said that the difference in Suly has been remarkable and instantaneous, and they are profoundly grateful.
