War Child Holland

We believe no child should be part of war. Ever. Children have the right to grow up in peace, free from fear and violence. To develop their full potential and become the person they want to be. War Child is committed to improve life of hundreds of thousands children in conflicted areas. War Child helps them to process their intense experiences, dare to reconnect with other children again and build self-confidence. They ensure that they learn how to read, write, count and learn a trade. Besides that, they create a safe environment where children can build a stable and above all, peaceful future. War Child does this worldwide. From Colombia to Afghanistan. Not because they like it that much. But because children are entitled to it. That is why they offer psychosocial support, education and protection to refugee and vulnerable children in fourteen countries. Because every child is entitled to a place where they can play safely, learn and recover from all misery.

The Childrens Book Bank

In low-income neighborhoods, the ratio of books to children is one book for every 300 children, far below the ratio of 13 books per child in middle- and upper-income neighborhoods (Handbook of Early Literacy Research 2006). The Children's Book Bank envisions a society in which all children, regardless of means, are surrounded by and experience books during their early years of development. Our mission is to increase the chances for children to succeed as future readers, learners, and citizens by filling their homes and lives with quality books. Our organizational goals are: • Close the book gap for children living in poverty by providing free collections of books • Improve kindergarten readiness and support literacy development by partnering with existing early education programs to provide books at critical stages of development • Engage the greater community in the collection, repair, bundling, and distribution of new and used children's books • Raise awareness of the learning challenges created by lack of books in the home in support of the greater effort to improve literacy
