A Balanced Spending Diet

In Zambia, three children sit around a fire, gazing into the pot that’s bubbling over the flames. The children look to be healthy and well-nourished, but their faces suggest that they’re eager for dinner to be ready! The little girl in the middle is licking her lips in anticipation.

Think of supper bubbling over a fire in Zambia in a drought. Helping families fill the pot with nutritious food means careful spending on programs, and core mission support for fundraising and administration.
