Jennifer Garner and Becs Gentry have gone the extra mile for kids – 67 to be exact – in support of Save the Children's efforts to bring life-saving malnutrition treatment to children who urgently need it now. 

A deadly mix of conflict, climate change, and poverty has pushed 2.3 million children aged under 5 in South Sudan into life-threatening acute malnutrition, with rates soaring just months after foreign governments announced the slashing of funds to the world's poorest countries, Save the Children said.

At least 55,000 children supported by Save the Children in Somalia will lose access to life-saving nutrition services by June, as the reduction in foreign aid force 121 Save the Children-supported nutrition centers to close.

At least five children with cholera in South Sudan have died on an arduous journey to seek medical treatment, after aid cuts forced their local health services to close in the middle of a major outbreak of the deadly disease, Save the Children said.
