Solidarity is not about politics or a line item in a budget. It is not something you can opt into once and walk away from. Solidarity starts with love.

It starts with seeing someone not as a beneficiary or a case number, but as a human being who has lost so much, is carrying so much, and still has so much to offer. At iACT, that is where our work begins.

In refugee camps across eastern Chad, there are coaches who show up every week with a soccer ball and an unshakeable belief that every child in their community deserves to feel like a child. They are refugees themselves. They know exactly what these kids are carrying. And they have decided that no child will grow up without someone in their corner.

That is what your gift makes possible. And right now, it goes twice as far — a generous donor has committed $5,000, which means every dollar given before June 20 will be matched.

$10,000 goal. $5,000 already matched. Join us.

No childhood should be lost because of war and conflict. This World Refugee Day, stand in solidarity.
