Vitamin A Capsule campaign
I was inspired to join the Vitamin A Plus campaign because I strongly believe that preventing child malnutrition and blindness is crucial for building a healthier future. Knowing that this simple intervention could save many children’s lives motivated me to actively participate and contribute to my community’s well-being.
We executed the project by collaborating with local health centers to set up distribution points in three locations. Along with nine other Rover Scouts, I volunteered as a health worker to provide Vitamin A capsules to children aged 1 to 5 years. We ensured the capsules were given correctly, guided parents, and helped maintain records to track the distribution.
I learned how important good health and nutrition are for children. I also learned how to work with others and talk to people to help them understand why Vitamin A is important. This showed me that small efforts can help many people stay healthy.
