Give Darfur Kids Stability Through Education
Target: US Fund for UNICEFSponsored by: Care2
For the past 18 months, thousands of children from the Darfur region of Sudan have sought refuge in Eastern Chad after being driven from their villages.
Many of these children have never been inside a classroom. Many of them have also witnessed horrendous atrocities that are extremely difficult for any adult or child to explain or overcome.
But there is help. Educational activities strongly contribute to helping children overcome traumatic experiences – and can bring a sense of protection and normalcy to their lives.
The School-in-a-Box program has become part of the UNICEF standard response in emergencies around the world. The kit contains supplies and materials for a teacher and up to 80 students.
Support this effort to bring school supplies to the Darfur children. Tell UNICEF you want School-in-a-Box to go to more children from Darfur!

To be able to read, write and do arithmetic, is such a basic necessity to being able to be an individual in this world and not part of a flock to be fleeced, or worse.

Education is the key to improving lives. Period. We must help others who are not as fortunate as ourselves in obtaining a better life. How could we not?
