Kerwens was found abandoned

Thank you for coming together to support Chances for Children. Meet Kerwens – his life in Haiti started off very rough, but today, thanks to your generosity he is on his way to renewed health. He was found abandoned in a river bed and was about two months old when he was brought to us. His system was infested with worms, but thanks to the care of our nurses, he has been treated and his system is now ready to start the Medika Mamba program.

Medika Mamba is creole for peanut butter medicine and is an energy dense peanut butter that is significantly fortified with protein and nutritional supplements. This product both helps children battle the serious effects of malnutrition and provides jobs to peanut farmers in Haiti.

We are grateful for your generous donations to help us care for Kerwens. With your help he will fully recover and grow into an active and healthy toddler. Thank you Venkat, Adam, Maja, Mary, and Maurice for your generosity!
