Help Us Touch More Lives Through World Week

How do you interest young people in issues that affect millions of children, such as hunger, disease, poverty, human rights and environmental devastation? Many kids don't have firsthand experience with these problems, which seem to occur so far away. Their only exposure might be images on the TV news that cause them grab for the remote and change the channel.

Yet children are exactly the people to engage in global problems. They have natural compassion. They have the desire to act, if they know ways that they can help. And they have the ability to inspire adults when they do.

Your gift to one of our partner charities can help us continue to offer World Week resources to schools, community groups, churches and others at little to no cost. Please call (253) 874-8400 to learn how you can help us touch more lives through World Week.

We are also looking for more charitable organizations to participate, especially ones in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. For more information on how your organization can get involved, e-mail us or call (253) 874-8400.
