High in the Andes Mountains, harsh weather and limited job options leave families like 8-year-old Nayeli's in dire poverty. Her parents work tirelessly but struggle to earn enough to consistently provide their children with nutritious food to eat.
Finding the right seeds and mastering the skills to grow vegetables in the devastatingly harsh climate feels impossible. And it's difficult to get to the market for vegetables and meat since most of the roads in the rocky terrain are narrow and treacherous.
It's the children who suffer the most.
With little food and almost no protein available, children like Nayeli are in grave danger of severe malnourishment, leaving them vulnerable to disease, frequently sick, and potentially, physically scarred for life.
