Infant Malnutrition
50,000 Israeli Infants Cry Out in Hunger
The cries of a hungry baby pierce the heart. Yet poverty, serious illness, multiple births, and functioning as a single parent are some of the challenges that can prevent mothers from being able to nurse their newborns. There are babies in Israel who suffer from infant malnutrition today. The consequences of malnutrition at such an early stage of life can include brain damage, developmental retardation, growth retardation, goitre, blindness, anemia, and a host of other tragic conditions. Worst of all, many of these impairments are entirely avoidable through nothing other than proper nutrition.
How can we ignore their cries? For just a dollar a day, you can make a difference.
What happens when an impoverished mother cannot feed her baby?Yad Eliezer's Solution
Infant Formula for 2,000 Babies a Month for Just $1 a Day
For just $1 a day, Yad Eliezer's Feed-a-Baby program answers the cries of Israel's hungry infants to ensure healthy physical and mental development during the critical first months of life. Yad Eliezer provides babies with six boxes of infant formula every month until the age of 12 to 15 months. As nutritional sensitivities and needs differ between children, we select formula type according to every infant's individual needs.
Wholesale business relationships with infant formula suppliers allow Yad Eliezer to purchase infant formula at half the retail price. A team of 150 volunteers distribute the formula nationwide at no extra cost. Careful evaluation ensures that formula is distributed only to those with no other recourse to feed their infants. This means that your donation to Yad Eliezer truly feeds the babies who would starve without you.
Hundreds more wait for your donations to include their infants in this program. Your donation to the Yad Eliezer Keren Eliyahu V'Esther Feed-A-Baby Program will give them and over two hundred and fifty other babies in Israel a healthy future.
