Jheyk is a 22-month-old boy from the Philippines who lives with his parents and brother.
Jheyk was recently diagnosed with malnutrition, a condition that results from consuming too few calories, proteins, and nutrients. Beginning on June 28, Jheyk will receive at-home malnutrition treatment through our medical partner, International Care Ministries (ICM).
ICM will provide Jheyk with nutrient enriched food packs to help him gain weight and achieve optimum 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 Jheyk’s ongoing care.
