The Power of Nutrition is a charitable foundation dedicated to preventing child undernutrition. It is working through a partnership of funding and implementing partners to unlock $1 billion in new financing for child nutrition that will transform children’s futures faster and on a scale that few are able to achieve alone. It is a registered charity in England & Wales and headquartered in London.

It was founded at the Nutrition for Growth summit in London in July 2013 with initial pledges from the United Kingdom and the Children's Investment Fund Foundation. It launched in Washington, DC in April 2015 with three additional partners – UBS Optimus Foundation, UNICEF and the World Bank – and arrangements in place to unlock the first $200 million in financing of its $1 billion target.

The Power of Nutrition takes a results-oriented approach to achieving a lasting impact on child undernutrition by 2020. It works in countries across sub-Saharan Africa and Asia where the burden of undernutrition is highest and only finances a proven set of interventions that deliver high-quality nutrition and care to children and mothers, focusing in particular on the critical 1,000 day window of opportunity between conception and a child's second birthday. The Power of Nutrition's first investment was made to Tanzania in May 2015.
