Why get involved?

That means almost 14,000 children under the age of five die every day from hunger. That’s 570 young lives lost every hour. Concern is working to change that.

Helping children

We supply malnourished children with special, highly-nutritious food in time to save their lives. This food is a bit like peanut butter but has added oil, dried skimmed milk and sugar with vitamins and minerals. It doesn’t need to be mixed with water so there is less risk of contamination, and it doesn’t need to be stored in a fridge to stay fresh. 

Treating malnutrition

We train local volunteers in the community to recognise the signs of malnutrition in children before they get worse. These children can then be treated in their homes, without having to travel long distances to get treatment. 

You can help

Driven by the appalling fact that 3.5 million children under the age of five still die from insufficient nourishment every year, Concern has become a world leader in the treatment of child malnutrition. However, we urgently need to increase the number of villages and communities we work with to help save children’s lives. By taking part in Bake a Difference, you will be helping us to achieve this important goal.
