2Some 67 million children are estimated to be
"wasted," which means they are below the weight
they should be for their height.
3But did you know that
- Two cents can buy one iron tablet supplement?
- One dollar can buy a year's supply of zinc
supplements (which lessen malaria incidences) for
one child? - 10 can buy 60 baby fish to stock a pond for a
potential protein supply for a rural village? - 45 dollars can buy Oral Rehydration Therapy kit,
which saves the lives of children in danger of
deadly dehydration caused by severe diarrhea. One
kit can save 375 children? - 98.72 will buy one 'school-in-a-box' kit, with
materials for a teacher and 40 primary school
students?
