Basic goods and medical equipment
Ukraine
The conflict in Ukraine, which began in February 2022, has affected thousands of families, including children who have been deprived of access to basic needs.
Children Action worked with a trusted partner based in Poland to organize deliveries of food and hygiene products for children and families living in war-affected areas.
The Foundation also delivered an incubator and medical equipment to the maternity hospital in Ivano Frankivsk.
Food aid
Myanmar
Following the political unrest caused by the military coup, more than 250,000 children were displaced to camps located in the border area of Karen State. They live there with their families in precarious conditions.
In 2022, Children Action funded the production of nutritious energy bars for children under the age of 10. The Foundation also provided food aid to families.
Emergency help
In times of crisis, Children Action can provide one-off emergency relief such as health, food security and education. This can include the provision of medicines, food, clean water, clothing, and other essentials.
Rapid and effective intervention in crisis situations
Essential products
Switzerland
In the context of the social crisis resulting from the health crisis resulting from COVID-19, Children Action has joined forces with Colis du Coeur, Partage, and Cartons du Coeur to distribute basic necessities to several thousand children from families in precarious situations in French-speaking Switzerland.
Since 2022, the Foundation has continued its collaboration with Cartons du Coeur to purchase products for children whose families are weakened by the health and economic crisis.
Medical Equipment
Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is facing its worst economic crisis since independence in 1948. A severe shortage of foreign currency is preventing the country from procuring essential medicines and equipment to maintain health services.
Faced with this situation, Children Action responded by providing medical equipment and diagnostic tools to Sri Lanka's largest free children's hospital, Lady Ridgeway, and to the Apeksha Hospital which treats children with cancer.
