Warm Clothes and Schools Reopening for Children in Kachin State, Myanmar

Picture
Every year, our partners in Kachin State, Myanmar provide the children who attend our Early Childhood Development centres with a new set of warm clothes to help them stay warm during the winter months. The children received their parcels in December 2021 and were absolutely delighted with their new clothes. The children were even happier to return to their preschools to show off their new clothes in January after many months of closures. 

Thank you so much for your donations throughout the year that help to make this all happen.

Picture
The Body Shop At Home has been a passionate supporter of Children on the Edge for over two decades and earlier this month; we gathered with them online at the Global Kickstart Conference with the theme ‘The Power of Us’.

We were honoured to be able to share with thousands of The Body Shop At Home consultants, more about our work with refugee children. We talked about why providing education to the youngest children who have fled conflict and violence can transform lives and create powerful change.

​We also shared how in 2022 we want to kickstart a year of learning for refugee children; with the support of The Body Shop At Home.

Child Protection Teams Making a Difference in Uganda

17/1/2022

 
Community workshop taking place outside in loco slum community. Around 40 participants are sat on mats and benches and are listening to a police officer speak in front of them.
In Uganda, we work in partnership with six slum communities in and around Jinja to ensure that children are safer and better protected. Through this work with local communities, children are able to have a better start in life and their prospects for the future are greatly improved.  

We now support six Child Protection Teams in six different communities (Loco, Masese I, Masese II, Masese III, Mafubira and Wandago) who serve to protect children living in their local areas. These teams of volunteers, trained and supported by our sister organisation Children on the Edge Africa, make a huge positive difference, not just to the children, but to the whole community.

Read on to see some recent success stories….
