War Child assists tens of thousands of war-affected children around the world each year. Donations to War Child directly support children in war zones. More than 90 cents out of every dollar raised goes directly to help war-affected children. War Child’s work is not possible without the efforts of its supporters. War Child believes that we can all be agents of change, not only in North America, but globally.

War Child Canada Gifts
While most gifts these holidays won’t save lives, a gift from War Child actually can. Your support gives a family torn apart by war the chance to rebuild and work towards a more peaceful future.
Gifts such as seed and tool set to give a family in Darfur the ability to grow their own food, or a back to school kit for a child in Ethiopia. These are gifts that can transform the lives of children caught up in the conflict.
“When you think of the amount of money that is spent each holday period on unwanted gifts, it’s horrifying.” says James Topham, War Child’s Director of Communications. “It is all the more distressing when you consider how much good that money could do in the conflict areas we work in. That is why this year we are asking people to choose to make a difference by giving good gifts from www.warchildgifts.ca.”
