As the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic come into focus, it's clear that this crisis is yet another example of the shameful truth about growing up in America: our children of color and children living in poverty are being hit the hardest.
Injustices built into our health care, education, housing, and economic systems are being magnified by the crisis, leaving vulnerable families to fight parallel deadly pandemics--COVID-19 and systemic racism.
Please make sure children get the help they need right now by making a gift to the Children in Crisis Fund.

We're fighting every day to make sure children have what they need to survive this crisis by:
Redirecting our advocacy efforts to get children--especially Black children, children in foster care, and other children that are particularly vulnerable--the relief they need to weather this crisis.
Ramping up our public education and outreach efforts to make sure families know how to access life-saving resources.
Adapting our community-based programs, like CDF Freedom Schools®, to leverage virtual learning opportunities that allow us to continue providing essential education and enrichment for children across the country this summer--meeting children where they are, when they need support the most.
You can help children in need right now by donating today to the Children in Crisis Fund.
Yes, I want to help! [link removed]
As challenging as this crisis has been, we know our nation will make it through. With your help, we can ensure all our nation's children will, too.
Thank you for standing up for children, today and always.
Gratefully,
Mark Publow
Chief Development Officer
