Chances of a child dying of a dog bite in North America are slim. But it can easily happen in the developing world—especially if a family can’t afford medical treatment.

Ever notice how tired you get when you’re hungry or how difficult it is to concentrate after a while? The fact is it’s extremely difficult for hungry or undernourished children to achieve their full potential in life. Often, by the time their parents realize what’s happening, it’s too late to catch up. That’s why regular health checkups are so important. With your help, we can monitor children’s growth in the communities we serve, and identify cases of malnutrition sooner.
In most countries where FH Canada works, the cost of school fees often exceeds what many families can afford. As a result, education is often sacrificed so that daily needs can be met. With your help, we can make sure that doesn’t happen.
Does hope come in a pill? If you’re a child in Haiti is does. Help FH meet both the educational and physical needs of some of the world’s poorest children by providing daily vitamins for children attending school.
