Abstract

The Liahona Children’s Foundation reaches out to over 800 children in seven different areas of Cambodia, from Battambang to Kampong Cham to Sen Sok. With such a widespread reach and breadth of effect it is imperative that these children are helped with the most effective efforts. During these beginning years of childhood, proper nutrition is vital as proper nourishment affects psychological and intellectual development and overall affects not only a child’s success in life, but their mortality and morbidity in life.
