That is why the charitable organization "Deine Hilfe zählt" has set itself the task of preventing illnesses that damn many children to a life of poverty, by teaching people how to protect themselves from the causes of disease and by offering medical check-ups through "village health workers".
The focus of these measures is on malaria (e.g. using mosquito nets) and HIV/AIDS (e.g. using condoms), and on improving the hygiene and the quality of children's nutrition (e.g. balanced diet, washing hands properly)
