Two things:

1) Learn more about what's happening and speak out for children. They are the innocents caught in this conflict and no matter what you think politically, we can all help kids.

One example of another partner we're working with, is TOMS shoes, who have provided warm winter boots for the kids in our programs. Here's a picture of some we handed out to the kindergartners today: http://t.co/h6rg6yeEQp

There's over a million child refugees from Syria spread out throughout the region.
