Much of a childs future - much of a communitys future - is determined by the quality of nutrition in the first 1,000 days. This period from the start of a mothers pregnancy through her childs second birthday is a critical window when malnutrition often results in debilitating cognitive and physical disabilities that last a lifetime. BPD knows that if you want to address the needs of a child, you must address the broader needs of their communities. By tackling the underlying causes of malnutrition - poverty, clean water, sanitation, food production, and gender inequality - we can achieve a sustainable decrease in childhood malnutrition. With you as our partner, we help not only todays children. We also ensure that future generations will never know the devastating consequences of malnutrition. To have a healthy child, you must have a healthy community. With your help, BPD will work with local communities to make the first 1,000 days healthier for pregnant mothers and their children. Your gift will have a profound impact on these families. You can be the difference in helping them lead their communities to lives of health, hope and confidence. They cant do it without you.
