World Children's Day
World Children’s Day was first established in 1954, celebrated on November 20 each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children’s welfare.
World Children's Day offers each of us an inspirational entry-point to advocate, promote and celebrate children's rights, translating into dialogues and actions that will build a better world for children.
This year’s theme is Inclusion, for every child.
FROM UNICEF:
According to the Convention on the Rights of the Child by UNICEF, every child in this world–regardless of their beliefs, gender, race and religion–has every right to healthy and nutritious food, and a clean and safe living environment.
No child should ever be treated unfairly for any reason.
And yet, it is estimated 45 million children under five years of age suffer from malnutrition, 149 million have stunted growth and development due to a chronic lack of nutritious food in their diets while 39 million are overweight.
UNFAIR ISN'T IT?
Here, at Scholars of Sustenance, we are determined to prevent surplus food from going landfill and harming the environment that the children live in, and redistribute them to people in need, especially the children community in Bali without seeing their beliefs, race, and religion backgrounds.
Because like this year’s theme for the World Children’s Day–Inclusion, for Every Child.
At the end of 2022, we will have distributed close to 25 million meals, and we aspire to continue to grow the numbers. But, we still need your help!
In the spirit of World Children’s Day, we are inviting YOU to make a commitment along our mission in combating hunger, and to reach more children in need. Support us by donating to this campaign!
All the funds raised will go directly to operational and help distribute more nutritious food to children in need.
