"NO CHILDREN LEFT IN NUTRITION, BECAUSE NUTRITION IS WEALTH"
Usa ka dako ug malampuson nga paghuman sa atong Nutrition Month Celebration 2026!
Government
Through the collaborative efforts of our Local Government Unit (LGU) and local Health Unit (LHU), we dedicated the entire month of July to nourishing our children, strengthening our community, and caring for our environment.
Highlights of Our July Activities:
- House-to-house Visits: A 3-day targeted visit to the homes of our selected undernourished children to assess and extend hands-on care.
- Fun Run Kick-off: We opened the month with high energy and lots of smiles through our Fun Run, featuring the crowd-favorite "Wrong Outfit" Theme!
- Environmental Stewardship:
Understanding that good health requires a clean environment, we held a Tree Planting Activity and a Clean-up Drive. Caring for Mother Nature and keeping our surroundings clean is vital to proper nutrition!
- 22-day Feeding Program (July 7-31, 2026): 21 selected undernourished children successfully completed their intensive feeding program!
- Culmination Day & PMNP Turn-over: As we celebrated the recovery of our 21 graduates, we also kicked off the next phase for 21 newly identified children with MAM through the support of the Philippine Multisectoral Nutrition Project (PMNP). These children received eggs, champorado, oats, cherifer, and a 3-month follow-up feeding program.
We are immensely proud that Guipos is the only municipality in Zamboanga del Sur taking this unique and proactive stance against childhood malnutrition and stunting.
To our incredible healthcare workers, LGU, partner agencies, and donorswho provided delicious, nutritious meals and unwavering support-DAGHANG SALAMAT! Seeing the joy on our children's faces as they enjoyed their food made every effort worth it.
A very special thank you to our supportive father of Guipos, Mayor Vicente P. Cajeta, and our equally supportive Municipal Administrator, Att. Kurt Atty. Kurt "Kokoy" Cajeta!
Thank you so much for your unwavering support for this program. Nothing is impossible with your guidance, comforting words to our undernourished children, and endless love for every GUIPOSANON. Wala GAYUD NAG-INUSARA ANG GUIPOSANON, NAA GAYUY KAABAG SA ALWAYS! Without your dedication, none of this would have been possible.
They say "No Child Left Behind," but here in Guipos, we say: NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND IN NUTRITION!
