3. CHILD SPONSORSHIP Malnutrition in India hinders the economy of the country. The vulnerable families with malnourished children are not able to feed their children properly due to poverty and the lack of awareness of nutrition. Even they know about nutritious food intake, they are unable to provide it because of poverty. Help poor child in India to help them overcome poverty and malnutrition. Asha Bharti, homemaker and mother of three young children, Agradeep (6 years), Akansha (5 years) and Sanjana (3 years), lives in one of the communities of Khagaria, Bihar, with her husband Sandeep, who is a daily wage labourer by profession. Last year, World Vision India helped her set up her own nutri garden in front of her house. Little did she know that her garden would come in handy in a time of pandemic outbreak and lockdown. Sanjana, Asha’s youngest daughter, playing around the garden, pulls out a sponge gourd and asks Asha, “Cook me this please!” Asha is proud of her garden and is motivated to grow more vegetables to feed her children. Vegetables added to the daily diet give Asha’s children energy, vitamins, anti-oxidants, fibre and the water content to enable them to live healthy lives. They help protect the children against diseases that may arise later in their lives like heart disease, stroke and some cancers.

4. Asha received a very timely support. When there is no work and the markets are closed, Asha is extremely grateful she has her own nutri garden and says, “During this difficult COVID-19 lockdown period, the garden helped me feed my family and keep us nourished.” Asha is also part of monthly meetings for mothers, where she learns about healthy cooking and hygiene. During this COVID-19 lockdown period, Nutri Gardens have brought happiness to the homes and smiles on the faces of children with malnutrition in India. *Nutri garden / kitchen garden programme is a provision provided by World Vision India to all the identified malnourished children’s families in a community. The identified families are supported with seeds and saplings. The kitchen garden is a small garden setup just behind or in front of the residence of the beneficiary. This programme greatly improves the health of children.
