Together We Showed That We #CantDoNothing!
This year, in honor of World Refugee Day, more than 330 people joined our campaign to say that we #CantDoNothing about thousands of refugee children missing out on their education.
It mattered!
In just a couple of days, and with an extremely generous matching contribution from an anonymous donor, we raised over $20,000!!
This will go directly towards The Syria Fund's education programs for Syrian refugee children in Jordan. Specifically, your donations will help fund:
- 5 monthly teacher salaries for the next year
- Arabic, English, Math, Science, Music, IT and Art programming with necessary supplies
- Backpacks with essential school supplies for more than 100 students
Special thanks to Milana Vayntrub for her powerful #CantDoNothing message and to Kristen Bell, Reza Aslan and more for helping us get the word out!
