Even before the ongoing political crisis, Niger remained one of the poorest countries in the world. It is a landlocked country in the Sahel region with a population of over 21 million people.
Malnutrition is a major threat to children's health and development in Niger. According to 2018 data, 15.0 per cent of children are acutely malnourished in Niger.
What is Muntada Aid Doing?
We are supporting a school meals programme for underprivileged children on the outskirts of Niamey, Niger.
There are over 250 children at this school, most of whom come from impoverished families. These children often come to school without any breakfast and no guarantee of food for the day.
How Can You Help?
Setting up a Direct Debit is one of the best ways you can support our programme.
Donating just £6 monthly will help us find nutritious food for children in Niger.
