Reaching Children's Potential in Tanzania | Global Volunteers
Stunting causes severe consequences that affect each of us. 25 percent of the world’s children are seriously and permanently adversely affected by stunting, and it's nearly 50% in rural Tanzanian villages. Stunting is caused by a complex array of factors, but in summary, it is the result of insufficient food, nutrition and protection from disease during the first 33 months – 1,000 days from conception through the second birthday – and inadequate parental/caregiver education.
Short-term volunteers, working through Global Volunteers’ Reaching Children’s Potential (RCP) program, provide the knowledge, technology and encouragement parents need to ensure their children’s future.
At the invitation of community leaders, Global Volunteers engages short-term (1 to 3 weeks) volunteers to help conduct village-based Reaching Children’s Potential (RCP) programs in Tanzania. RCP provides families and communities the knowledge, technology and encouragement needed to combat stunting and ensure children can realize their full potential.
