As a Nutritionist, I know firsthand how vitamin deficiencies can affect the immune system and proper growth of children under the age of five. Somewhere there is child that needs nourishment to continue fighting diseases and sickness. This fundraising event won't cure nutritional deficiencies in children of this age group, but it will provide funding to continue with the aid of vitamins for malnourished children. It will also educate individuals and create awareness of the number of malnourished children around the world today. This is my first fundraiser and with your support we can help provide children with the proper nutrition they need!  Vitamin Angels will be an evidence of my commitment to such a cause. Even a small donation goes a long way! Thank you for your donation!

In 2009, Vitamin Angels provided over 10 million children with essential nutrients. This year, with your help, we will double our reach to 20 million children.
Every year, around 54 million new children are affected by malnutrition or undernutrition.
A panel of world-class economists assembled by the Copenhagen Consensus ranked micronutrient supplementation ranked as the #1 global priority.

One in three children worldwide is undernourished. Vitamin Angels reduces child mortality by connecting infants and children under five with vital nutrients.
Vitamin A is essential to immune function, especially in children under five who are most vulnerable to common infections and diseases.
