Maventy

Maventy is a mobile medical program based in existing clinics geared toward measuring, identifying, and treating malnutrition in young children, while also offering basic primary care, screenings, and immunizations. We work with on-site doctors to treat malnutrition immediately by prescribing the affected children doses of peanut butter and multivitamins. We strive to create individualized long-term treatment plans by working with the children’s parents and primary caregivers to modify their children’s existing feeding patterns and habits. We identify and include locally-grown nutritious food in their children’s everyday diets, which ultimately fosters growth-promoting feeding patterns.

Our philosophy is based on volunteerism from the heart. We operate purely on the monetary and skill-based compassion of our donors and volunteers. Since its inception, our program and its attributes – including medical supplies, multivitamins, website, and medical expertise – have been donated by over 100 volunteers with varying backgrounds, who donated their time and individual talents toward our campaign to overcome malnutrition.

我们没有员工,无论是管理nor the volunteers receive any salary or stipend. Some people have worked with us for several years and have donated over 10,000 hours of medical, IT, operation, and promotional effort. Everyone contributes according to his or her availability and capacity.
