World Relief

Did you know that some of the world’s most urgent crises aren’t receiving the resources they need? It doesn’t have to be that way. World Relief and our partners in the Integral Alliance, a collaboration of 21 Christian aid agencies based in 14 countries, released a new report on these neglected crises and the factors driving them. In it, we call for a collective and effective response.

We love a sing-along! In Burundi, we’ve opened 6 early childhood development centers for refugee children under 5. These centers will serve 300 children living in refugee camps. Refugee children are at heightened risk of trauma and are more likely to experience gaps in education.

As we continue to expand early childhood programming in Burundi, we aim to reach 3,000 children in refugee camps and from communities that host refugees. #burundi #childhooddevelopment #displacementcrisis

For decades, World Relief has been welcoming Ukrainians seeking safety in the U.S., and we have been assisting those impacted by the recent war in Ukraine since its earliest days.
