One of the most well-known organizations that helps fight this cause is UNICEF. UNICEF stands for United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund. This organizations created by the United Nations to help governments, especially in developing countries by improving the health and education of the children. They supply people with clean water and nourishment to help fight malnutrition. 

Another organization that helps fight the cause is World Vision. This is a group that allows you to sponsor a child for about a dollar a day which provides the child with food water and education. Last year alone, they used 87% of their profits to help the people who need it.
