John: Right now, 468 million children around the world are surviving conflict and facing other unimaginable crises. As you reflect on 2023 and hope for a happy new year, please don’t forget about these children who are facing the brunt of a year filled with crisis after crisis. And while help can feel impossible at times, we focus on what matters: Children.

From violent conflict in Gaza to the lasting impact of earthquakes in Afghanistan, Türkiye and Syria to the ongoing war in Ukraine and the global hunger crisis, children were deeply affected by hardships beyond their control this year. They need your support now while every dollar will be MATCHED by a generous group of donors:

So please, rush any amount you can spare, which will be MATCHED to help us reach our $100,000 goal and ensure children around the world have access to a better, brighter future.

For children who’ve lost their homes because of disaster, who don’t know where their next meal will come from, who are living in fear of conflict… for children facing hardship everywhere, your matched gift today can make a profound difference.

Thank you for giving what you can today and for all you do to make brighter futures possible.
