Bio Seven-month-old baby Minga is doing well and taking formula in conjunction with soft foods for growth. Her healthy birthweight of 4.7 kg has continued to increase to 6.2 kg in January of 2024. Baby Minga lives with mom and twin brother Dominguez in the village of Changa. Both babies have been healthy since joining the program in October 2023. They are doing well on formula supplementation with newly introduced soft foods, as the mom does not have adequate breast milk to supply to both babies.

MILK PROGRAM SPONSORSHIP: HOW IT WORKS This is one of our Milk Program Babies! Our milk programs provided much-needed milk and nutrition to malnourished babies. Most babies are in our milk program for about a year. Upon signing up to sponsor a Milk Program Baby, you will receive a photo of your baby. Throughout the year, you can expect quarterly updates on your baby's health via email. Once your baby reaches about a year old and is healthy, you will be sent a graduation photo! You will then be matched with a new baby in need of sponsorship.
