John: Millions of children around the world are
denied an education simply because of who they are or where they live –
and the ongoing pandemic has only worsened their circumstances.
- Nearly 10 million children could
be forced out of school forever because of poverty caused by
COVID-19.
- Without access to education,
children struggle to escape the cycle of poverty and are at dire risk of
early marriage, forced labor or gender-based violence.
- Girls are likely to be much
worse affected than boys by the impacts of being out of school.
When you rush a donation today,
100% of every dollar will be MATCHED up to our $75,000 back-to-school
goal toward
access to books, nutritious food, protection from harm and so much more
– but the deadline is approaching quickly.
Can the world's most
vulnerable children count on you to rush a donation and have it go TWICE
as far for them today? Your MATCHED support will make possible
better, brighter futures for children – no matter what challenges they
face.
Thank you so much, today and always, for
helping us create lifelong change for children.
