HEALTH


AT WORLD CHILDREN'S FUND, WE SUPPORT BOTH LONG-TERM AND IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION
TO MEET THE HEALTH CARE NEEDS OF ORPHANS, VULNERABLE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES.
SINCE OUR INCEPTION, WE HAVE FED THOUSANDS OF HUNGRY CHILDREN THROUGH OUR
LIFE-SAVING NUTRITIONAL FEEDING PROGRAMS LOCATED IN THE POOREST CORNERS OF THE
WORLD. WCF ALSO SUPPORTS PROJECTS THAT PROVIDE MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH CARE
SERVICES, AS WELL AS COMMUNITY BASED HEALTH CARE TO SERVE THOSE LIVING IN
IMPOVERISHED GEOGRAPHIC AREAS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE GO WITHOUT ACCESS TO MEDICAL
TREATMENT.


NUTRITIONAL FEEDING PROGRAMS ARTICLE COUNT:  0


MANY OF OUR PROGRAMS PROVIDE MEALS TO VULNERABLE CHILDREN IN EDUCATIONAL
SETTINGS. RECEIVING FOOD WHILE AT SCHOOL HELPS TO ERADICATE HUNGER AND PROMOTES
SCHOOL ENROLLMENT AND RETENTION. IT ALSO ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR VULNERABLE AND
ORPHANED CHILDREN TO BEG ON THE STREETS TO SURVIVE. OTHER WCF SUPPORTED PROGRAMS
TARGET CHILDREN LIVING IN SLUM AREAS. AN ESTIMATED ONE BILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE
LIVE IN SLUMS. BY 2030, THE NUMBER IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE TO TWO BILLION
PEOPLE. SLUMS ARE FILLED WITH DISEASE, GARBAGE AND UNSANITARY CONDITIONS LIKE
ANIMAL AND HUMAN WASTE. THEY ARE ALSO OVERFLOWING WITH VERY HUNGRY CHILDREN.

World Children's Fund supports nutritional feeding programs that provide one
meal a day for thousands of children living in slums who are relegated to a life
of poverty.

Your generosity is filling bellies and saving lives.


HIV/AIDS CARE FOR INNOCENT CHILDREN ARTICLE COUNT:  0


ACCORDING TO THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, TRANSMISSION RATES ARE AS HIGH AS
45%. IN ADDITION TO INHERITING A LIFE-THREATENING ILLNESS, MANY OF THESE SAME
CHILDREN BECOME ORPHANS. AN ESTIMATED 17 MILLION CHILDREN HAVE LOST ONE OR BOTH
PARENTS BECAUSE OF HIV/AIDS. WORLD CHILDREN'S FUND INTERVENES IN THE PLIGHT OF
ORPHANS INNOCENTLY AFFECTED WITH HIV TO ASSURE FOOD SECURITY, SHELTER, ACCESS TO
MEDICAL CARE, EDUCATION, ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY AND TO SHIELD THESE BLAMELESS
CHILDREN FROM DISCRIMINATION AND EXPLOITATION.

At World Children's Fund, we believe every child deserves a chance at life.
