Description Based on an original idea from my singer friend, Jenifer Aubry. Go check her, she's amazing! [link]


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.

As you read this, over 30 wars and conflicts rage around the world. Some fill our TV screens with appalling images of distress, emphasising war’s brutalizing effect on man.

Many of these wars go unreported, often due to political
expediency or lack of interest. They reveal a shaming pattern: Sixty million people have been killed in wars during the 20th Century. Over 80% of war casualties are now civilians - mainly women and children.

Children are amongst the first casualties of any armed conflict, always the most vulnerable and innocent of victims. In the last decade alone 1.5 million children have died in wars. Four million have been disabled and a further 10 million traumatized.

The severe psychological wounds that war inflicts on children can scar them for life, crippling the very generations that must one day rebuild their devastated countries. For the future peace of the world we must do everything in our power to help these war children.

PLEASE, SUPPORT WAR CHILD!


-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Basé sur une idée originale de ma pote chanteuse Jenifer Aubry. Aller la voir, elle est incroyable! [link]


War Child a été fondé dans un but bien précis : Faire avancer la cause de la paix en donnant de l'espoir aux enfants au prise dans les horreurs de la guerre.

Tandis que vous lisez ceci, plus de 30 guerres et conflits font rage autour du monde. Certains emplissent nos écrans de télé d'images epouvantables de détresse, mettant l'emphase sur les effets brutaux de la guerre sur l'homme.

Beaucoup de ces guerres ne sont pas rapportées, souvent à cause de politiques opportunistes ou par manque d'intérêt. Ce qui nous amène à un constat honteux : 60 million de gens ont été tués en temps de guerre pendant le 20ième siècle. Plus de 80% des pertes humaines sont des civils - la plupart sont des femmes et des enfants.

Les enfants sont parmis les premiers à perdre la vie dans tout conflit armé, victimes vulnérables et innocentes. Dans la dernière décennie seulement 1.5 millions d'enfants sont décédés pendant les guerres. 4 million sont handicapés et plus de 10 million sont au prise avec des traumatismes.

Les sévères blessures psychologiques que la guerre inflige aux enfants peut les marquer pour la vie, endommageant les générations qui doivent un jour reconstruire leur pays dévastés. Pour une future paix mondiale, nous devons faire tout ce qui est entre notre pouvoir pour aider ces enfants de la guerre.

i agree it is a marvelous form of communication and making a statement as well as for decoration, pleasure and fun and expression, as a dyslexic I love visual ways to say things its much eassier for me.

Thanks a lot! That's why I did that one. That's so sick and we never hear about it... It looks like it's more important to have the sport report, the weather report and the price of gas than to talk about real things on TV...
