Growing up healthy

Ensuring children’s survival, protection and healthy development

Last year, Plan worked with the communities to ensure that more than 4,400 children received nutritional supplements. This programme is of great importance as four in every 10 children here suffer from vitamin A deficiency.  These supplements will help prevent the occurrence of the most common preventable diseases and hasten mental growth at the time that is very crucial to the life of any child.
