Help Child Refugees in Europe and Turkey

Dear Friend,

Thank you so much for your support! You have helped to fully fund key components of our project “Help Refugees in Europe and Turkey.” Because of your generosity UNICEF was able to do support vulnerable refugee and migrant children during every stage of their journey. Through your support, UNICEF was able to:

• Work with governments and partners to improve standards, child protection systems, policies and practices to help refugee and migrant children.
• Provide support for children and families along migration routes to their final destinations. 
• Model alternatives to detention centers – such as foster care, supervised independent living– for refugee and migrant children who are detained.
• Help train first responders, social workers and government partners in dealing with child protection issues.
• Support the provision of supplies, including shelter, materials, clothes, age appropriate foods and baby cribs.
• Advocate for the promotion and the protection of the rights of all refugee and migrant children without discrimination on the basis of their parents’ needs or migration status.
• Monitor the situation of children and the impact of new policies and practices on their rights.
• Work with host communities to address xenophobia and promote social inclusion.

While we are closing this project on the GlobalGiving site. We would greatly appreciate your continued support of the UNICEF Emergency Response project here on GlobalGiving. By supporting UNICEF’s work through that program, you can receive updates on current emergencies happening around the globe, UNICEF’s response, and how you are creating an impact.  You can continue to see updates on our programs at www.unicefusa.org; following us on Twitter, or on Facebook.

Thank you!
