This year all of
the money raised will be donated and split between three projects:
Hope and a
future to malnourished children in Afghanistan
In August 2021
the lives of millions of Afghans were turned upside down by the sudden and
unexpected take-over by the Taliban. Many people are losing hope, and some are
making desperate efforts to keep their families alive. Over 1 million children
in Afghanistan are expected to be at risk of death from malnutrition this year.
This is why our partner NGO has started a project to serve two poor urban
communities where malnourished children will be admitted into a treatment
program and receive special food sachets that will keep them from dying, give
them energy and enable their minds to continue to develop well. Children who
receive help will not only regain their health and have a chance at life, but
will also have energy to go to school, to grow mentally and socially.
Teens from
Ukraine
The war in
Ukraine has meant that many people have fled their country. Many of these
people are teenagers, and as TeenStreet we want to share the love of God with
them and provide an opportunity for them to find hope for the future, and peace
despite their current circumstances. That's why we have invited the teens from Ukraine
to TeenStreet this year, and in faith we decided to support them financially,
to come or to be able to do their own TeenStreet in the future. Our prayer is
that they will have an encounter with the Father this summer, and leave feeling
refreshed, encouraged and empowered to share the love of Jesus with those
around them. The money raised will support Ukranian teens and volunteers for
this summer and for the coming years...
Supporting
Teens around the World
Throughout the
years we have seen how TeenStreet has impacted teens in Europe, and how they
have been impacting their environment and beyond. We also want to see teens in
other parts of the world grow in their personal relationship with Jesus, to
have a spiritual impact and to reach out with the love of Jesus in their own
country. We believe this is possible through TeenStreet and we dream of growing
and starting new TeenStreet around the world, so that teens in these countries
really can make a difference.
