Across the world, millions of families have been torn apart by the death of loved husbands and fathers, due to ongoing war, persecution, poverty or natural disaster. Orphans and widows are left to fend for themselves, needing your support to survive.
Wives and children have been left reeling and grieving – losing not just a beloved man but the little financial income that they had. Now widowed and orphaned, they face the hardest of circumstance alone just to survive each day.
Across the globe, poverty, war and natural disaster have claimed the lives of many. For many communities, men have lost their lives in their efforts to protect their families.
In Syria, women have had to witness their loved ones killed in a war which shows no sign of ease. In Gaza, decades of conflict have ripped apart generations, striking down young men in the prime of their lives. In Indonesia, multiple earthquakes and mudslides have killed hundreds, leaving families reeling and life never the same.
Widowed women face the ultimate struggle in soothing, comforting and providing for multiple children grieving for their father. With no opportunity to work, no child care help and living in shelters or makeshift homes, life is tough. Basic human necessities such as warmth and food are a struggle. Clean running water is a luxury. Education is just a dream. And the grief never ends.
