In fact, there are 25.5% of children who are undernourished. Hence, I would like to lend a hand in ensuring health of these families with nutrition education and parental support. It is not enough we give them food, instead we educate parents on meeting their nutritional needs. We agitate the public on the importance of defeating malnutrition.”
Through her efforts, she organizes together with these Filipino families & various institutions on providing food security for all. Kayla definitely knows what she is doing with her efforts in the right direction. She also stood out at the press presentation making herself a front-runner at the competition.
