WWII Refugees Write Comforting Letters To Syrian Refugee Youth (WATCH)

WWII Refugees Write Comforting Letters To Syrian Refugee Youth (WATCH)
It's truly beautiful how a few kind words written down from a stranger can close the gaps of race and generations.

 

No matter the race, gender, or generation, a child will always be a child.

That's why elders who fled WWII as refugee children in 1945 are writing letters to the refugee children of today.

The Special Delivery CARE project honored the 5-year mark of the Syrian refugee crisis by sending care packages containing toys, candy, and letters to displaced children in Jordan.

The results were deeply moving.

CARE has been sending humanitarian relief to asylum-seekers ever since they first reached out to WWII refugees in 1945. Over 2 million Syrians have already received aid; from food baskets and grocery debit cards, to hygiene kits and emergency shelters.

If you'd like to send some loving letters written in your own hand to children who need of comfort, check out the My Care website.
