First Steps Canada

First Steps Canada According to the World Food Programme, one in every five children in North Korea are chronically malnourished or ‘stunted’.

First Steps is committed to preventing child malnutrition in North Korea through programs that provide essential nutrients to young children and pregnant women. According to the U.N, over 43% percent of the population are undernourished. Because of the widespread famines and undernutrition, an entire generation of children is at risk of dying from curable diseases. Current rations provided by the

DPRK government can meet well less than half of the daily calorific needs for the 68% of the 16 million population receiving public food rations through the PDS. Most people struggle to make up the deficit through alternative means as they do not have the necessary purchasing power. First Steps is a Christian organization committed to preventing child malnutrition in North Korea through programs that provide essential nutrients to young children and pregnant women.

Soymilk is typically made daily and transferred to stainless steel milk cans for delivery to school-aged children.

콩우유는 보통 매일 신선하게 만들어지며, 스테인리스 우유통에 옮겨 담아 학령기 어린이들에게 전달됩니다.

Bringing it back to where it all began for our first post of the year.
An encounter with a mother and her twin daughters from Hamhung in 2000 revealed the realities of child nutrition in North Korea, sparking the very beginnings of First Steps.

올해 첫 게시물로, 모든 것이 시작된 그 순간을 다시 떠올려 봅니다.
2000년 함흥에서 만난 한 어머니와 쌍둥이 딸들. 그 만남은 북한의 아동 영양 현실을 깊이 마주하게 된 계기였고, 퍼스트스텝스의 시작을 여는 작은 씨앗이 되었습니다.
처음 품었던 마음을 기억하며, 다시 한 걸음 내딛습니다.
