Helen Keller International (Guinea) alleviate malnutrition in Africa through a range of programs with local partners including saving sight and lives with vitamin A, helping families grow better food, helping provide millions with access to better food, and improving maternal and child nutrition practices. We also combat neglected tropical diseases including the blinding conditions of trachoma and river blindness - through drug treatment and promotion of improved hygiene and sanitation.
