How your company can work to improve the lives of women and children
The Power of Nutrition recognises that the support and endorsement of the corporate world is key to achieving our goals, thus it has set an initial objective of raising $500,000 by April 2019 from an alliance of companies interested in improving global nutrition.
Contributions made by companies will be matched and multiplied to $2m through our bilateral matching agreements.
The alliance will support a portfolio of the most significant, robustly designed and managed programmes, addressing undernutrition and helping to improve the lives of millions of women and children in Africa and Asia.
The Corporate Alliance will support 7 new programmes commencing in 2018 in Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d’Ivoire, Madagascar, Rwanda, Tanzania, India, Indonesia and beyond.
These major programmes drive sustainable changes to health provision in these countries to support a combination of evidence-based interventions (proven to improve nutrition and health) and supporting activities including: breastfeeding promotion, vitamin provision and supplementation, de-worming, handwashing with soap, healthcare worker training, antenatal and post-natal care and hygiene and nutrition education.
Ultimately, your contribution will be a vital stepping stone towards our goals of reaching 18 million mothers and 17 million children with nutrition interventions. Beyond simply fulfilling objectives on corporate shared value or social responsibility initiatives, your support will transform lives for the better and help countries across Africa and Asia progress towards sustainable development.
