In Sudan’s ongoing conflict, access to basic necessities has become increasingly difficult especially for children. During a recent visit to an orphanage in the region, we witnessed young students learning the Quran by writing verses on wooden boards, a traditional method used when books are unavailable.

The sound of Qur’an recitation fills the room with calm and purpose. Sitting side by side, the children gently recite verses they have worked hard to memorize, their voices rising together in unity and faith.

Each verse they recite builds confidence in their hearts and deepens their understanding of patience, kindness, and trust in Allah. In a place where many have faced loss

Their time outside was active and engaging, allowing them to express themselves f

As evening arrived in the Philippines, families gathered together, waiting patiently for the moment they could break their fast.

Today, we sent something small but deeply meaningful to orphaned children in Uganda: lollies. For many of these children, daily life is shaped by loss, uncertainty, and limited access to even the most basic comforts. Childhood, which should be filled with play, laughter, and care, is often replaced by responsibility and survival far too early. Moments of joy can be rare. That is why something as simple as a lolly matters. When the lollies arrived, they brought more than sweet
