War Child Australia

About Me

Working with local partner organisations to protect marginalised children - street children, child soldiers and children in prison - in places that are acutely affected by conflict such as Iraq, Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

    Street children and child soldiers who need our help. People who support the charity's vision to rescue them. Bands who will support us through their music.
