Meet Suldana

27-year-old Suldana, her husband, and two surviving children were staying in a vacant home that belonged to friends in the town of Dhobley. Having lost a child to diarrheal disease, Suldana was desperately worried about the health of her youngest son and brought him, severely malnourished, to the hospital. A concerned nurse visited their home a few weeks later and found almost nothing but a hollow shell. The family had nothing. Their only belongings, other than a few articles of clothing strung from the mud walls, were the supplies they had received from our partner World Concern – a cooking pot, water jug, sleeping mat, and other necessities. On a fire near the entrance, Suldana was cooking a meal for her family – rice and beans she had also received thanks to our partnership. “I give thanks to those who donated this food, and I pray for them,” she said, looking down at her pregnant belly. Soon, she’ll once again be the mother of three.
