Peace For The Children
Since the Second World War, more than four fifths of the people killed in war have been civilians. Globally there are already 18 million international refugees from war, and another 24 million people are displaced within their own countries. According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, four fifths of displaced people are women and children. Wars typically cause the break-up of families, the collapse of education systems and consequent widespread social and psychological damage to civilians. You can help us help the innocent victims of war by visiting our website and finding out more about the projects currently underway. You can volunteer or donate and know you will be helping the future generations of our world.
