As a DONATEUR DE COEUR, your regular donation supports a mission that is particularly close to our hearts: supporting and protecting girls in especially challenging and difficult situations.
Mona is 9 years old and lives in Yemen. Since she was born, she has known only war and hunger. Before CARE Luxembourg's project began, it was impossible to safely go to school. Today, CARE provides a bus that ensures a safe journey for the girls and renovates the school so they can use the bathroom on site and enjoy a full day of classes. Teachers are trained to detect and support victims of sexual violence.
During violent conflicts in remote and extremely poor regions, it is the girls who bear the most direct consequences. They lose access to education and healthcare services. They are exposed to sexual violence and malnutrition.
Desperate families often see no other solution than to arrange early marriages as a last resort. This practice often leads young girls to a life of suffering, exposed to sexual abuse and early pregnancies.
In response to this dramatic situation, we do not merely provide one-time or individual support.
CARE works in a comprehensive way to protect girls:
By becoming a DONATEUR DE COEUR, you give little girls the chance to smile again, to experience the joys of safely attending school, to eat properly, to have access to clean water, to be educated, and to dream!
With your regular donation, you ensure the optimal growth and healthy, happy development of little girls.
A regular CARE donation is tangible, concrete and efficient.
allowing, for example, 2 girls in Yemen to attend scool safely.
for example, contributing to the training of teachers to better support girls traumatized by violence or other experiences of war.
for example, contributing to the training of village health volunteers in Niger, enabling them to better address the medical needs of girls.
help, for example, protect girls from early marriage and teenage pregnancies. Their mothers are empowered, village leaders and fathers are trained, and girls' groups provide a space and a stronger voice within the community.
Souad became blind at the age of eleven, when the war in Syria began. As security deteriorated, Souad and her family fled Aleppo to the countryside.
Here, for the first time, she experienced hunger. They decided to flee to Turkey. "When we finally arrived, we were exhausted."
The day before the earthquake on February 6, 2023, she had an accident. "I suffered a head injury and couldn’t sleep that night, so I felt the earthquake from the very start. Thanks to CARE's support, I was able to become a community mobilizer and raise awareness in my community about issues such as early marriage, violence against women, and child protection."
CARE Luxembourg will remain by the side of girls like Souad, in Turkey and Syria.
CARE works to break this vicious cycle and build a better future for these girls, their families, and consequently, the community. Our experience shows that girls who have access to education and adequate nutrition become agents of transformation in their future families and actively contribute to challenging norms and evolving societies and mindsets. Following the implementation of its projects, CARE has observed significant progress and profound changes on the ground within a single generation.
And all this is made possible thanks to the support of our DONATEURS DE CŒUR !
