Change the way you give this Christmas and you might just change the WORLD.
Because of the realities of the war, families are forced to grab all they can from their homes and move to safer locations. Through The Arrival and our partners in Ukraine, The Bible Today, we have been able to hand out thousands of backpacks to children in these challenging times. We have heard first hand the stories of how much joy they bring and how for some, it is the first time they have smiled since the war began.
