Project Description
Help for children in Iraq
Call for donations for our new aid project
In April, an aid team from the Caravan of Humanity travels to Iraq to help suffering people in the crisis region of Kurdistan. Many thousands of people displaced from their homes hope for a future in their own country. In the wars of recent years, their homes have been destroyed, their families torn apart, and their prospects taken away.
As always, unfortunately, it hits especially hard those who have already lost everything in the wars: The children in Iraq face great hopelessness. There is a lack of everything – clothing, education, medical care, toys, etc. Especially girls are the focus of our new aid project in the north of the country. Unfortunately, it is a hallmark of this region that girls and young women in particular have been severely traumatized by the conflicts of recent…
One of our goals on the ground is to bring hours of joy and lightheartedness to a country marked by destruction. The children should also be allowed to “be a kid” for once and enjoy bubbles and clown interludes. Through our “Mobile Painting Room” people have the opportunity to express their feelings in peace and quiet.
Therefore, donations in kind and money are urgently needed, which we will personally hand over to the people on site in cooperation with the local partner NGO “Jinda”. On the one hand, the donations are used to buy food and medicine, and on the other hand, we use them to finance vocational training for girls. In this way, we give them prospects for the future and, for the first time, the young women can take their lives into their own hands.
Donations in kind for the children of Iraq can be dropped off at our collection points until March 29. We personally distribute the relief supplies on site! All info, the needed donations in kind, as well as our collection points can be found here.
Every single euro donated helps to give the children self-confidence and stability!

You want to help?
- THE COLLECTION OF RELIEF SUPPLIES HAS ALREADY BEEN COMPLETED.
If you would still like to support us, we would be happy about every single donation for the children in Iraq. - DONATE MONEY:
Donations are especially urgently needed, which we will use specifically for food purchases as well as vocational training for girls. If as many people as possible make a small contribution (perhaps 10, 20 or 50 euros), together we can make a big difference and give the children prospects in life.
