TOGETHER we provide essentials, including emotional/spiritual support, education, resources & supplemental nutrition for pregnant women, infants, and children up to 4 years old, to ensure a healthy start to life for moms and children during their formative first years. We empower families not only to survive but to thrive through a program called PEN.
We are excited to SHARE our BIGGEST outreach in El Salvador yet!
