Hammamatu Hassan

In this slum, which has been listed by the United Nations as a severely food-insecure area, there are many other patients with the same condition. It is shocking. Therefore, we hope that everyone will know about this and help these poor and sick children and their families.

Usman

Three-year-old Usman lives in a remote village in northern Nigeria, where chronic malnutrition has left his bones too weak to stand alone. His mother, Amina, cradles him each morning as she feeds him two small meals of millet porridge, whispering promises of strength. His father, Musa, works long days carrying water, yet they cannot afford the medical care Usman desperately needs—nor school fees. When aid workers arrive with fortified food and basic health checks, hope blooms: with gentle support and proper nourishment, Usman takes his first unsteady step toward a brighter future.

Umar Farug

Umar Farug is a 9-year-old boy from Nigeria. This boy, who should be running in the sunshine, has unfortunately suffered from idiopathic short stature (ISS) due to poverty and lack of food, which has led to long-term malnutrition. It might also be a genetic disease. He can hardly walk normally, and the short stature is consuming his life at a visible rate every day. Usually, only his mother takes care of him with great difficulty. Their income is very meager. The sick Umar not only cannot receive medical treatment but even has problems with basic food and clothing. When we found them, his mother's eyes were filled with the longing for help.

Huawa Yahaya

This is Huawa Yahaya, a 9-year-old girl from southern Nigeria. When she was just 14 months old, her mother passed away. Since then, her grandmother has been her only source of love and care. Without breast milk and proper nutrition, Huawa never learned to walk, and she couldn’t attend school. Life was difficult. But then, volunteers from the New Hope World Alliance Foundation heard her story — and stepped in. With their help, Huawa began to receive the support she so desperately needed. Now, there is hope.
