    What’s the impact of a blanket? For Bayan Yammout, who spent her childhood living in Lebanon during the war, it was the feelings of warmth, security, and resilience. Through UNICEF Canada’s Survival Gifts, you can help create this same impact. Over 70 items are available for you to gift to children in need on behalf of friends and family. You can even gift humanitarian aid directly to places like Lebanon, which will be matched dollar-for-dollar. A little can go a long way this holiday season. Listen to Bayan’s story below and visit UNICEF Canada's Survival Gifts site for more: https://ow.ly/aa0N50UpUSs

  • Since 27 November, more than 48,500 people have been displaced, mainly children and women in #Syria. Most of the children have been uprooted multiple times due to previous crises. Once again, children are bearing the heaviest brunt of the conflict. UNICEF calls on all parties to cease hostilities immediately and to take all possible steps to ensure the safety and well-being of every child in Syria impacted by this conflict.
