Children don't deserve War

Dear friends,

Over 1 million Syrian children are refugees with no access to education, but we can stop these kids from becoming a 'lost generation'. We're teaming up with 16-year old education campaigner Malala Yousafzai and UN Education Envoy Gordon Brown to raise $1 million in the next few days, then challenge donor countries to match it 10:1, raising enough money to start putting every refugee child in school! Pledge €4 to make it happen:

Syrian children may feel little hope today, but this week we have a powerful chance to help save their future.

A staggering 6 million Syrians have fled the fighting, many of them children. In many wars, they become a 'lost generation' that knows guns more than books, and never get a chance to build a better life. But this time, there's an exciting plan to change that.

Inspiring 16-year old campaigner Malala Yousafzai and UN Education Envoy Gordon Brown are teaming up with our community to issue a challenge to governments -- if we can raise $1 million, we'll call on each donor country to match us 10:1 to raise the $100+ million needed to start putting every Syrian refugee child in school! In days, Malala and Brown could personally address the Syria humanitarian summit in New York and wave the cheque from us as a challenge. Our donations could help turn this from a business as usual meeting to a major moment that spurs action.
