Every child should have the freedom to dream about their future, not worry about whether they’ll see their loved ones again. This #WorldPeaceDay, listen to children from Yemen, Lebanon and Ukraine share their hopes for peace. Every child deserves to live in peace. ❤️

Children are trapped beneath the rubble in #Gaza as rescue teams dig with their bare hands, hindered by restrictions on essential machinery and equipment. Every minute matters. Children cannot wait.
White and red text on a black background. The text reads: "Children could be heard screaming and pleading for help from underneath the rubble. At least 12 children were killed after the collapse of a war-damaged building in Gaza. At least 50 could be missing under the rubble." Below the text is an image showing a devastated urban area with collapsed buildings in Gaza, with rescue workers and equipment on-site. Photo credit: Save the Children, Source: Al Jazeera.

I saw the bodies of a woman and her child being recovered. They were lying together on a mattress where they had been sleeping. This is not a sight that anyone should or ever could ever get used to."

This is a danger that threatens everyone here in Gaza." The quote is attributed to Shurouq, Save the Children Multimedia Manager. At the bottom is the Save the Children logo.

Thank you @SenatorBennet & @SenatorCollins for being longtime champions for early childhood educators! We’re proud to support the bipartisan SEED Act, which would give these educators the same tax deduction available to K-12 teachers.

Great to see the House pass our SEED Act, delivering relief for early childhood educators who cover classroom costs out of their own pockets. As a former Superintendent of Denver Public Schools, I hope the President signs this bill immediately so those who teach our youngest Coloradans can get the support they deserve. bennet.senate.gov/2026/09/17…

40% of rural kids qualify for free and reduced-price school meals. Because kids can’t learn when they’re hungry, access to nutritious food is an important part of helping children learn, grow and thrive. Every child deserves the chance to Learn Without Limits. 📚🍎✨

Rural families earn nearly $30,000 less per year than non-rural families. For kids, that can mean less access to the resources they need to learn and thrive. We’re working to remove barriers to learning and help every child reach their full potential. 📚✨

Schools are protected civilian spaces. They should never be under attack. But for millions of children, a new school year begins without a classroom. Every child deserves the safety to learn without fear. Education is a lifeline. We must protect it.

2 in 3 kids across America can’t read at grade level by age 10. Save the Children is working to change that. We’re helping kids in rural communities build strong reading skills through early education, school-age programs and summer learning. Thanks to our corporate and foundation partners, more kids can Learn Without Limits! bit.ly/4gzEn7m ✨

For many families in rural America, quality childcare isn't just hard to afford. It's hard to find. Access to quality early learning can set children up for success long before they enter a classroom. Together, we can help ensure every child has the opportunity to start strong and Learn Without Limits. ✨ 📚
