Caring adults work together to keep Husain safe

Husain, an eight year-old orphaned boy, lives with one of his relatives – a poor, elderly woman – because his parents were killed in a terrorist bombing. The elderly woman could barely take care of Husain — instead of attending school, he spent his time on the streets. Caring adults in his Iraqi community reached out to him and, with the help of your sponsorship, are giving him tutoring, healthy meals, and other services.

The mission of the Sponsor Iraqi Children Foundation is to assist the families and communities of Iraq by mobilizing a life-changing “Surge of Love” for millions of children orphaned by violence in Iraq. They are committed to doing this under the leadership of the Iraqi people by serving as a catalyst to mobilize U.S. and international partners; investing in training and capacity building of Iraq’s non-governmental and community organizations; and emphasizing direct assistance for hand up, not hand out, projects.

With your help, Anonymous, Lorena, Robert, David, Rana, and Najwa, children like Husain can reclaim their childhood.
