Milk=Better Health for HIV+ Students

Schoolchildren in Tanzania's Southern Highlands get regular helpings of milk as part of a new Heifer project, and parents and teachers marvel at the instantaneous boost to health, concentration, energy and attendance. Matrida Peter, a math teacher who oversees the School Milk Program at Nyumbanitu Primary, said all of her students gained weight and vigor, but her HIV-positive students show the most improvement. "Their skin was dull and dry, but now their skin is shining."
