We believe no child should be part of war. Ever. Children have the right to grow up in peace, free from fear and violence. To develop their full potential and become the person they want to be. War Child is committed to improve life of hundreds of thousands children in conflicted areas. War Child helps them to process their intense experiences, dare to reconnect with other children again and build self-confidence. They ensure that they learn how to read, write, count and learn a trade. Besides that, they create a safe environment where children can build a stable and above all, peaceful future. War Child does this worldwide. From Colombia to Afghanistan. Not because they like it that much. But because children are entitled to it. That is why they offer psychosocial support, education and protection to refugee and vulnerable children in fourteen countries. Because every child is entitled to a place where they can play safely, learn and recover from all misery.
Zambia Open Community Schools (ZOCS) was founded on the principle that every child has the 'right to education'. We enable some of Zambia's most needy children - Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC), especially girls - to access quality education by supporting community schools and the surrounding community. Through this, we want to enable the children to acquire the knowledge and skills they need to develop to their full potential, hence giving them hope for the future.
Tibet Relief Fund works to empower Tibetans to build sustainable communities and better futures through education and innovative practical grassroots initiatives. There are currently around 150,000 Tibetans living in exile, since the first wave of refugees fled their homes in 1959 to escape China's occupation. Tibetans still living inside Tibet are marginalised and denied fundamental rights, with their religious beliefs, cultural identity and ways of life under serious threat. Tibetan refugees living in settlements in India and Nepal have limited access to healthcare, education or work opportunities. This makes it difficult for them to build sustainable livelihoods and develop their communities, and leaves them vulnerable to crises. Tibetans, like anybody else, should be able to live and work with equality and security, and celebrate their rich culture and traditions. That's why we're here.
