The Brut media followed ZeratoR and Dach in the Central African Republic† The two men, organizers of the annual Twitch charity marathon in France, traveled to the Central African Republic with… Action against hunger to understand how the funds raised are used. The chance for the streamer and his lifelong sidekick, to meet the people they help indirectly by raising funds through their community. The Central African Republic is one of the countries most affected by malnutrition, benefiting from: help from the NGO that focuses on seven areas that are not only related to food:

The report clearly shows that this is not the case not just to feed the population† Action against hunger identifies malnourished people, psychological and social support populations, etc.

Donations go to 16 countries, from Madagascar to France

The Central African Republic is one of the poorest countries in the world: more than 60% of Central Africans depend on humanitarian aid and it is estimated that more than 40% of the population is food insecure. Thanks to donations from Z Event, we can strengthen our support for the Pediatric Center of Bangui.

Half of the Central African population lives in Bangui. It is therefore necessary to continue to support this center and the food centers of the city. The goal is to be able to care for 3,500 children who suffer from severe acute malnutrition. We will also train 53 health personnel from Bangui and 21 health teachers and more than 500 students in medicine, nursing and allied health professions in the treatment of severe malnutrition and in psychology.
