Global Children’s Charity — Save the Children NZ

When drought comes, hunger will strike.

For a lot of families though, love is not enough. In the face of conflict, severe drought, extreme poverty, food insecurity, lack of access to drinking water, and disease, a parent can’t provide everything they’d like to for their child when they don’t have the basic essentials.

Malnutrition robs children of their strength, their vitality, and, too often, their lives. Nearly half of the deaths among children under five years of age worldwide are linked to malnutrition. That’s why your help is so urgently needed.

Your generous donation will be matched by the New Zealand Government, helping provide health workers worldwide with the tools they need to combat malnutrition and hunger.
