War may be relentless,
but so were you.

scroll

In a year of growing conflict, heightened uncertainty and global insecurity, your love remained relentless.

In many of the places we work, where violence and displacement continue to uproot entire communities, the scale of need can feel overwhelming. With record numbers of children growing up in war zones and millions more displaced by conflict, the headlines alone are enough to make anyone feel powerless. But not you.

Instead of turning away, you leaned in and rolled up your sleeves with us, determined not to let conflict have the final say in the lives of thousands of children. You were part of delivering hope in regions that are wearied by years of fighting.

As a result of your tenacious kindness and generosity, thousands of children are in school, well-fed, and in good health across Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Be encouraged as you watch the stories, see the numbers, and read the quotes from those touched by your love in action this past year. Helping kids live their lives to the fullest is who we are. It’s what we work tirelessly toward. And we’ll continue to celebrate together as we see it become a reality.

Thank you for staying the course with us.
