Malnourished children in the U.S.
Jun 1, 2009

A problem that often seems to go unnoticed is that over one in four children in the U.S. are malnourished.  That's 13.5 million American children!

We at Nourish America are providing supplements to kids around the country to keep them well and functioning.  Their teachers and parents claim that after receiving the vitamins and nutrients we give them, their children are happier, healthier, and more productive.

Join us in fighting against child malnutrition!  Visit us online at www.nourishamerica.org.

We're also on Facebook (search for us in Causes), MySpace (www.myspace.com/nourish_america), and Twitter (www.twitter.com/nourishamerica).
