 9,000,000 children are refugees right now.

There are 20.8 million refugees and other people in need of protection. Most of these people have fled persecution or conflict at some point in their lives.

You might not be able to change the world, but you can change the world for one refugee child. We can't do it without you.

How you can help:

   - $25 can send one refugee to school for a year.

   - $50 can provide a refurbished computer to a refugee school.

   - $275 trains one new refugee teacher for a community school or a community technology centre.

Whatever you give - $1 or $1000, will improve the lives of children in refugee camps around the world through education and sports programs. 

Help them play, let them learn.
