George Society
The George Society is named after a little boy called George. A little boy who made a big impression. George was treated in one of our treatment centres in Liberia, when he arrived he was suffering from severe malnutrition. He was starving, ill and close to death, however within a few weeks he was back to being a happy, funny three year old who gave forceful high fives.
It takes just six weeks to save a child from malnutrition and this engaging toddler George was proof of how quickly a life can be turned around.
The George Society has a single goal – to end child malnutrition. This may sound like a ridiculously ambitious goal. But it is happening. Since 1990, the proportion of malnourished children globally had been cut in half. It’s impressive but there is still a long way to go.
George represents the millions of children right now, suffering from malnutrition, who will go to bed hungry tonight.
Big goals need collective action, which is why we are bringing together a community of generous, committed individuals to help us reach more children and their families. We welcome the opportunity to discuss this further with you.
