Dilan is a one-year-old baby boy from Guatemala. He is the fourth child in his family. His mother is a homemaker, and his father works in construction to support their family.
Dilan has been diagnosed with malnutrition, a condition in which the body is unable to grow properly due to a lack of nutrition. Beginning on March 13, Dilan will receive nutritional support and be monitored for growth at our medical partner’s care center, Clinic Panajachel.
Our medical partner, Wuqu’ Kawoq, is asking for $492 to fund his treatment, as well as an educational program for his mother. This program will teach her how to create a nutrient-rich diet for Dilan with limited resources.
Dilan’s parents are looking forward to their son’s recovery so he can grow to be a strong, healthy child.

Dilan received malnutrition treatment.
Since beginning treatment for malnutrition, Dilan has been growing bigger and stronger. He is a playful young boy, and he enjoys playing with his toy car and with his sister. Dilan’s mother says that the aid of the program has helped their family greatly. Beforehand she could not feed Dilan even an egg a day due to a lack of resources, however now Dilan is eating a diverse, nutritious diet. We are confident that, with continued treatment, he will continue along this healthy trajectory.
Dilan’s mother says, “I am grateful for the help you have given us in the program. My son is growing well and eating more than before.”
