This bar is lifesaving.   Ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) is a powerful paste that can bring a severely malnourished child from the brink of death to full recovery in just 45 days. With a 90% success rate, RUTF is proven to heal children suffering from severe acute malnutrition (SAM)—the deadliest form of hunger.   In 2023 alone, Action Against Hunger used RUTF to treat 355,000 children with SAM, saving countless lives. With RUTF, we can stop these preventable deaths and help children grow, learn, and play like they should.   But right now, funding cuts to USAID are causing delays in getting this lifesaving food to those who need it most. While the White House has reinstated funding, there’s still uncertainty about when this vital food will reach the children who depend on it.    That’s why we need your support. Together, we can make sure these lifesaving bars reach every child in need.    Learn more at our link in bio.
