“We pretend to eat the food until our stomachs are full and then we can sleep at night.”
—Malak, refugee child
The dreams of an 11-year-old Syrian girl living in a refugee camp gave us tremendous hope for the future. When food was scarce, Malak* drew beautiful pictures of food for her family. When her family pretended to eat the “food,” they felt full and could get to sleep at night. Her moving story of survival inspired us to take action.
Despite her circumstances, Malak still dreams. Those dreams inspire hope and give her family a reason to keep living, to envision a better life. Join us in our goal to give refugees simple tools to rekindle their hope and share their dreams.
*Name changed for privacy.
Malak’s story inspired us to join hands with our partners in a number of different projects with the goal to provide food and warmth for the immediate needs of these refugee families. Read more and find out how you can help below.
