My Nonprofit Reviews

As a donor, I had the chance to visit Wuqu' Kawoq this summer (2011) to see the child nutrition programs - community-based screening of child growth, micronutrient and nutrition supplementation, and deworming treatments.

What I saw was an organization that knows the in-depth issues facing each community and is mastering the techniques of working in child health. I was impressed with the commitment and thoroughness of the local staff, community health workers, and Dr. Rohloff.

One of my favorite parts was talking to the moms about changes in their children since starting the nutrition program. Consistently mothers said, "They play more, they eat more, they have more energy."

During the visit, I was particularly interested in seeing the results of the program. Which I did. The results of Wuqu' Kawoq's work are not only shown in the documented increase of height, weight, and health of children but also in the eyes of their mothers.
