PLUMPY®
The FEED 5 bear, named PLUMPY®, provides Plumpy'nut® to 5 severely malnourished children in the region of East Africa.
Plumpy'nut® is an energy-dense paste made with peanuts, milk, powder, sugar, vegetable oil and a fortified vitamin mineral mixture. It does not need to be refrigerated or mixed with water - two things not readily available in the developing world. It is given to the child at home by the mother instead of at a hospital, saving lives with a 95% success rate.
PLUMPY® is made of organic cotton and natural burlap, and is approximately 16" tall.
