War Child Canada, founded in 1999 by Samantha Nutt and Eric Hoskins, works with children all over the world to reduce poverty, to provide education and to defend their rights. War Child works to help children whose lives have been torn apart by conflict, and provide them with the means to build a brighter future. War Child works with local people and organizations in Afghanistan, Darfur (Sudan), Uganda, Sierra Leone, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Sri Lanka, and Haiti.
About the Organization: War Child Canada is part of War Child International, a network of independent organizations, working across the world to help children affected by war.
War Child was founded upon a fundamental goal: to advance the cause of peace through investing hope in the lives of children caught up in the horrors of war.
War Child works in many different conflict areas around the world, helping hundreds of thousands of children every year.
