World Breastfeeding Week is an opportunity to honor the remarkable benefits of breastfeeding and to highlight its importance for mothers and children. This year, Samburu Women Trust proudly joins the international community in commemorating this significant event with the theme, “Empowering Parents, Enabling Breastfeeding.”

Breastfeeding is a fundamental and natural practice that offers numerous advantages for both mothers and their babies. It goes beyond simply feeding the infant; it lays a solid foundation for lifelong health. In the Samburu community, where access to healthcare and nutritious food can be scarce, breastfeeding is a crucial defense against malnutrition and illness.

As we observe World Breastfeeding Week, let’s unite to support Samburu mothers on their breastfeeding journey. By empowering parents and facilitating breastfeeding, we can pave the way for a healthier, brighter future for our children.
