Children in Ukraine Need our Help
The war in Ukraine is an immediate threat to children.
The conflict in Ukraine represents an immediate and growing threat to the lives and wellbeing of 7.5 million children from this country. Humanitarian needs are multiplying by the hour as the conflict is escalating. The needs are urgent and include the provision of necessary supplies, medical equipment, protection and humanitarian financial aid.
Children are dying, being wounded and are deeply traumatized by the violence all around them. Families are living in fear and uncertainty.
