Covid-19 and Children

Childhood Hunger

The Most Vulnerable Hit Hardest

Protect a Generation

"The COVID-19 pandemic has hit people from all countries and communities around the world. It is clear that the most deprived and marginalised children are being hit the hardest by the pandemic, exacerbating existing inequalities and pushing the most vulnerable children even further behind."

"For too many children, missing school means that they may never return; a parent losing his or her income means children go hungry; and increased pressures and stress on families mean that children experience more violence." — Inger Ashing, Save the Children, International CEO

A Universal Crisis

COVID-19 and Children

"Children are not the face of this pandemic. But they risk being among its biggest victims, as children's lives are nonetheless being changed in profound ways. All children, of all ages, and in all countries, are being affected, in particular by the socio-economic impacts."

"This is a universal crisis and, for some children, the impact will be lifelong. Moreover, the harmful effects of this pandemic will not be distributed equally. They are expected to be most damaging for children in the poorest countries, and in the poorest neighborhoods, and for those in already disadvantaged or vulnerable situations."

Our Children's Bread Fund

Make a Difference

It is hard to imagine a child going hungry, and not consuming enough calories from food each day to sustain proper growth, learning or play. Storm Chaser Foundation’s “Our Children’s Bread” Fund provides for critical nutritional needs of extremely vulnerable children in Ghana and South Africa. A small recurring donation will go a long way toward calming the destructive storm of childhood hunger.
