This year, our Christmas appeal is for children in East Africa.
Tuesday’s Child has recently returned from visiting aid projects for children suffering
in the famine zones of Northern Kenya and the Somalian border. People here are
suffering to the extreme and as in any disaster, children are suffering most.
Food, milk, clean drinking water, mosquito nets and medicines are still urgently needed.
Please support our Christmas appeal and help us purchase life-saving gifts
this Christmas. We give everything receive.

Areej
In December 2008, Tuesday’s Child launched an appeal on facebook for a little girl called Areej, badly injured by white phosphorus in January 2009 in Gaza. Two specialist burns surgeons advised that unfortunately there is no surgery available for Areej. Thank you to everyone who supported the needs of this little girl.
In January 2011, a group called Truth Justice Peace, made a video of Areej and linked it to our charity without our knowledge or discussion of content. The information given in this video is incorrect. We first became aware of this video on 10 Jan 2011 and requested then, and many times since, that this video link be removed to Tuesday’s Child. Tuesday’s Child wishes to state we have NO association with the makers or the content of this video.

Children of Gaza
In January 2010, Tuesday’s Child met many bereaved children and heard their stories of living through the horror of war.

These children continue to live in extreme poverty and hardship, they are traumatised and cannot understand why the world does not seem to care about them and thousands upon thousands of children just like them living in captivity. The children of Gaza show incredibly bravery in the face of adversity. The inhumanity has to stop and this cruel siege has to end. The future of all of our children depends on it. Read more... » |

Country
Spotlight: Zimbabwe... The Nahera College,
on the outskirts of Harare provides
practical skills training to teenagers
in the area. The Centre, run by the
Franciscan community, teaches skills
such as woodwork, building, roofing
and plumbing. The Centre caters for
20 residential students at time and
full meals and recreational facilities
are provided. Each intake runs for
18 months at the end of which a
diploma is awarded. The project keeps
teenagers off the street and the skills
training enables a start in employment
and proactive contribution within local
communities (the right to education, the
right to health). Find
