Project Peanut Butter

Malnutrition is a critical, global problem that impacts millions of vulnerable children each year. It kills more than twice as many children as HIV/AIDS and malaria combined. Yet, there is a cost effective and proven solution that can eradicate severe malnutrition in our lifetime. Project Peanut Butter, a revolutionary therapeutic program founded by Dr. Mark Manary, is the most effective method to treat severely malnourished kids all over the world. Using effective, locally produced ready-to-use therapeutic foods, this nonprofit provides needed nutritional and medical support primarily to children suffering from severe acute malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa and beyond.

Suffolk Sister Cities International recently donated $5,000 to this wonderful program. Matching grants turned this into a $10,000 donation, making this one of our most successful programs to date. The Project Peanut Butter organization was so thankful for this donation that we received a wonderful thank you email from them, which you can read here.
