How we do it
We focus on the first 1 000 days – from pregnancy to age two – when good nutrition and care matter most to prevent stunting.
Our model combines data, storytelling and local action to create lasting change for mothers, children and communities.
We do this through three core initiatives:
Grow Great Flourish: Online and in-person support groups for mothers and pregnant women, led by trained local women. These groups offer practical guidance on self-care, baby care, early brain stimulation, breastfeeding and nutrition – and give moms a fun and non-judgemental space to learn, connect and grow together.
Grow Great Champions: We partner with government and government-contracted NGOs to train and equip community health workers. These champions support maternal and child health, track child growth, and act early to prevent stunting – household by household.
Grow Great Campaigns and Advocacy: We use powerful storytelling and clear messaging to shift mindsets and drive action on early childhood development and nutrition.
We’ve shown it’s possible. Now it’s time to scale.
To reach every child in South Africa, we need:
- Sustained funding for proven interventions
- Partners who believe in local capacity
and evidence-led action - Champions who are in it for the long haul
Your investment can help grow a generation
free from stunting. Let’s build a South Africa
where every child thrives.
