"Rewrite the Future" in Colombia
|
Save the Children’s Rewrite the Future campaign is focussed on securing quality education for the millions of children out of school due to war and armed conflict. With the money raised during all World Kids Colouring Day events in the UK STAEDTLER will support the Rewrite the Future project in Colombia where approximately 713,000 primary-aged children are out of school. Save the Children focusses on four fundamental rights for children: health, freedom from hunger, education and protection. Rewrite the Future is the first global campaign involving all 28 members of the Save the Children Alliance. Save the Children is calling on governments and international agencies to put policies and resources in place to provide quality education for all children. More than 40 million children around the world can't go to school because they live in countries affected by conflict. This is over half the number of children out of school worldwide. Millions more are receiving a substandard education. Through this campaign we intend to bring education and hope to those millions of children affected by conflict.

Initiating the World Kids Colouring Day we at STAEDTLER want to point out how important drawing and colouring is for all children's development. With all events launched during the World Kids Colouring Day we can give hope and stability to those children who are denied proper healthcare, food, education and protection. Participate! |
