31 million (31,000,000) children around the globe had been displaced and given refugee status in 2018. Out of which millions were unaccompanied, separated from their families, running away from religious persecution or in exile. All of these children have faced grievous moments in their life and without YOUR help will still do so. NGO’s and UNICEF around the globe are doing their best to help these children but YOUR contribution will make all the difference.
How did this start?
Just a few years before the dawn of the First Golden Age popularly known as the 21st century, the world had again gone to hell in many countries around the globe. Now there was a group of brainwashed students fighting for appalling reasons e.g. The rise of Taliban, Invasion of Kuwait and a notoriously large number of examples. A dictator in an island nation in the West (Fidel Castro of Cuba) who made restrictions so tight that people had to flee far and wide simply to breathe, and a fight between USA and Russia regarding Capitalist and Communist values that had disguised itself in the Vietnamese War, the Korean War, The moon landing and more than anything, the Cold War and the race for nukes. The human population had a very heavy price to pay for all of these. Especially women and children who were loaded with Guns in the Vietnam War and separated entirely from their families during the Korean War.
With Civil wars arising in Africa and religious persecution in the Middle East, 13 million children are unable to get an education, almost 3 million minors are conscripted into the armed forces and are loaded with Kalashnikovs before they turn 18. A lot of them ran away to small refugee camps and asked for asylum aided by organisations like the Red Cross and UN.
What happened to them? (after they became REFUGEES)
33,200 children were sent to Europe. These children were settled in Greece, Malta, Spain and Cyprus. Out of which almost 27 percent of them were unaccompanied. 17500 children were being resettled around the entire continent. Barely 500 children have been adopted across the globe by American couples
Most of children (around 11 million) are still in UN settlements or in refugee camps waiting for help.
Help that YOU can provide
What can you possibly do to help them?
Cicero said ‘I think, Therefore I Am’, why can’t we ‘Think, and therefore Do’.
Children are the most helpless and vulnerable group who are facing atrocities in this world. There is so much we can do to help these children. One small thought and initiative is all that it requires is a small sum of money, drives to collect food and clothing, buying simple stationary, donating to good charities.
YOU are the people who can make the change with the smallest thought. And these children really need you.
Will you help them?
I certainly want to and want you to, the rest depends upon you.
