9/11 being the most unexpected day had a shattering impact on all the lives who were linked to it as well as those, like us, who could only see the world of the affected families breaking apart.
Still 15 years after the attack, a question occurs on the minds who pass ground zero, "Why innocent lives had to slay in the name of terrorism?"
The violent issue of terrorism after the 9/11 attacks has grown to the skies and the isolation can be felt in all parts of the world. Because of the spreading terrorism, there seems to be an uncertainty in the approaching future. But, on our part we can press on the hope for something better by making even the tiniest difference on our side of the world.
This tiny difference can open doors for some futures. But How?
The answer is, "Safer World Fund".
What is the Safer World Fund?
The Safer World Fund (formerly the philanthropic arm of Our Voices Together) began as a response of family and friends of loved ones killed in the terrorist acts of 9/11. It is now engaging many people who recognize how individuals can help fight terrorism. By supporting primary education, vocational training, and health care, these projects offer opportunities to impoverished people in the poorest areas of the world, especially girls and women.
Starting September 7, 2016 and continuing until all funds are depleted, all contributions to Primary Education Project through www.globalgiving.org will be matched 50%, giving an extra boost to the impact your contributions will have.
Donations starting from the least amount up to 1,500 $ will be matched by the Safer World Fund ensuring education for children and especially girls in PEP schools, rural Sindh Pakistan.
The Terms and Conditions for donating:
"Giving is not just about making a donation,
It's about making a difference."
By Kathy Calvin, President of United Nations Foundation.
For us, the message of Giving is a way to offer the many children in rural Sindh an education that will have a lasting impact on a child's life.
How can you help in advancing a child's future?
