After fleeing devastating conflict and losing their homes, children need safety, and an opportunity to learn, heal and resume the normalcy of childhood with play and social interaction. Support education for refugee children, training for teachers and constructing child-friendly spaces. Boys and girls will receive transportation to and from catch-up classes and recreational activities to interact with other friends, school uniforms and supplies, counseling for their emotional healing and referrals for specialized care.
Each day, nearly 900 million people live without access to clean water. For far too many women and children, that means hours spent carrying heavy jugs of water that’s not safe to drink. Community watering stations bring fresh water to central locations, improving overall health and freeing up time for women to provide for their families and children to attend school.
A lamb or kid (baby goat) can be a daily source of nutritious milk. They help farm families provide their children with well-rounded diets and increase incomes.
Too many children around the world don’t have access to quality health care. Routine health exams for children help monitor growth and development, and provide vaccinations to prevent disease. They also allow health care providers access to necessities, such as medical supplies, to diagnose and treat diseases, so that girls and boys have a better chance to lead healthy, happy lives.
Eggs and chickens provide lifesaving protein for families. Chickens are easy to raise in small yards and can generate added income.
