Guatemala has the highest stunting rate in Latin America at 46% with some regions reaching 99% of children suffering from malnutrition. Stunting is a form of malnutrition that affects the cognitive development of children.Stunting can reduce a child's future income potential by up to 30%. That's why whenever a country invests $1 into nutritional programs there is up to a $30 return to that country's GDP. You've been able to provide enough nutritional treatment to help over 4,700 children grow up to reach their full potential!
