Just because it isn’t happening here doesn’t mean it isn’t happening

The war in Syria has killed more than 11,000 children, according to the Oxford Research Group, and created more than 1.2 million child refugees, according to UNICEF.

On the bright side, according to TIME:

The Norwegian nonprofit SOS Children’s Villages recently staged a candid-camera ad featuring a freezing boy at a bus stop. Passerby that encountered the boy generally offered him their coats and scarves, proving that people were willing to help a suffering child in need. The ad ends with a plea to send aid to Syrian children.

If you want to help Syria’s children, Mercy Corps is a fine way to do it.  Thanks!  You guys are astounding in your generosity!
