John, as millions of children in Türkiye, Syria, Ukraine and around the world face compounding hardships like conflict, hunger, poverty and natural disasters, we cannot afford to waste this opportunity:
Hatem was already growing up during a civil war in Syria. Then, February’s devastating earthquakes destroyed his family’s home, making a dire situation even worse. They were trapped in the rubble for hours before they were rescued. With the support of champions for children like you, we provided Hatem’s family with temporary shelter amid the destruction – but their future remains uncertain.
No child deserves to live through conflict, let alone face the consequences of violence and natural disaster at the same time. Kids like Hatem – and countless others enduring unimaginable hardships outside of their control – urgently need all the support we can provide.
