Recognized worldwide as a leader in the fight against hunger, Action Against Hunger delivers programs in more than 40 countries, specializing in emergency situations of war, conflict, and natural disasters and longer-term assistance to people in distress.
One of the tools that they employ in their fight against hunder is a product called Plumy'nut. Featured on CBS's 60 minutes and other prominent media, Plumpy'nut is a prepackaged, easy to administer peanut butter based concoction that helps severly malnurished children (6 months to 5 years old) recover from starvation.
Estella has partnered with Action Against Hunger and begining Fall 2008 will raise money for the purchase of Plumpy'nut. Estella will donate a plumpy'nut for every purchase made from Estella; we will make and sell a plumpy'nut bracelet and donate all the profits to the purchase of plumpy'nuts; and we will disseminate information about plumpy'nut to encourage people to join the fight against world hunger in general and specifically against childhood malnutrition.
