When Mehrun Sheikh (name changed) was enrolled in Action Against Hunger’s program, she weighed just 5.2 kg—classified as a child with Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM). Her family struggled to provide a balanced diet, unaware of the importance of diverse food groups and proper hygiene practices.

Through continuous counseling sessions by the team, her mother learned about nutritious food choices, the significance of WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) practices. She also received guidance on reducing fast food consumption, ensuring Mehrun’s diet supported her recovery.

With dedicated intervention and her family’s commitment, Mehrun gradually regained her health and now weighs 6.5 kg. Today, she is healthier, more active, and on the path to a nourished future—one meal at a time.
