Together for Goma: Change lives, give hope
In Goma, there are + 500,000 refugees. Emergency aid was already needed. The war reached the city this week, M23/AFC took over, and aid agencies were forced to withdraw. 4Watoto remains. We know the community and can help immediately.
Outside our gates, people are struggling to survive – mothers without food, the sick without care, children on the cold ground.
What will come, we do not know. What we do know: we must help now. Every life, every bit and every smile counts. Will you join us?

Develop partnerships so we can continue to build Goma, the empowerment of children and disadvantaged people. Aid is needed now and is vital. But real change comes from sustainable solutions: education, employment and strong communities. Aid is needed now, but empowerment through education, skills and economic opportunities gives people the power to build their own future.
When possible we will start helping the refugees to go back to their homes.
