Erlande needed a little help

2013-05-22-18.54.35-622x8001
Dear Venkat and Bram,

Thank you for supporting a child in need through Chances for Children! Haiti has the highest maternal death ratio in the western hemisphere, leaving many children orphaned within their first week of life. Chances for Children provides hope for children in Haiti through education, orphan care, and community development programs.

Erlande and her mother needed our help. Due to chronic illness, this mother was not able to breastfeed ­- she wanted to keep her child at home but she did not know how she would be able to do this without endangering her child. We are now providing weekly donations of formula and this mother and her little girl are very happy. Thank you!
