Fatima's choice
Expensive drugs for her sick child. Or food for her whole family.
It’s a choice no parent should have to make.
Give families like Fatima's a genuine choice.
Meet Fatima
Worried mum Fatima Lafatou is at her wit’s end. The rains haven’t come, again. Food costs more and more. Her animals have already starved to death.
Fatima's problem
For Fatima, it’s a daily struggle simply to feed her family. She’s taken to skipping meals herself to stretch the family budget. But even then, all too often they go hungry. But that’s not all. Fatima’s beautiful daughter Dorro has a dangerous infection. She needs antibiotics, and quickly. Something’s got to give.
Fatima's choice
Medicine for Dorro, or food for all of them? It’s one or the other. For an anxious mother, it has to be the medicine. Meanwhile the rest of your children go hungry and get weaker and more vulnerable by the day.
Medicine for your sick child. Or food for your hungry family. It’s a choice no parent should have to make.
