RATIONS FOR HIV+ve PATIENTS
STREET PROVIDENCE provides nutritional food to children diagnosed with HIV.
Good nutrition can have several benefits on a HIV +ve patient.
It can:
- Improve the overall quality of life by providing nutrients that the body needs.
- Keep the immune system stronger so the disease can be fought better.
- Help manage HIV symptoms and complications.
- Process medications and help manage their side effects.
Keeping this in mind we at STREET PROVIDENCE have volunteered to help the poor HIV +ve children. We identify such children and provide them rations on a monthly basis to help them have nourishing food.
