“Angels with Broken Wings”

Finally, we have a direct connection with people in Aleppo, Syria!!!

Thousands of children, many of them newly orphaned, have fled the horrors of Aleppo. They are hungry, cold and terrified after months under siege and bombing. We can provide Syrian children and their families with warm clothes, food, and clean water. Please pay for items from their GOODdler wish list, and we will deliver them locally: http://gooddler.com/Wishlist/10141
