Not all heroes wield swords. Some help children learn to read, make sure families have the support they need or create safe places for kids to grow and thrive. That's why we're proud to partner with @Mattel and @mastersmovie to help create brighter futures for children across the U.S. You have the power to help too, learn how: bit.ly/4vswDsf #MastersOfTheUniverse

Thank you @SenatorCollins, @SenBrianSchatz, @SenatorShaheen, @ChrisCoons and @RepLoisFrankel for highlighting the importance of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, during budget hearings this week. Gavi helps protect millions of children from preventable infectious diseases—the leading cause of death for children under 5 globally. Continued U.S. support is critical to saving lives and building a healthier future for children everywhere.

This is what protecting children during an #Ebola outbreak looks like. Health workers in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo are using protective equipment, screening tools and infection prevention measures to help stop the spread of Ebola and keep essential care running for families.

World leaders must do all in their power to end the Israeli government’s ongoing bombardment and blockage of aid. The people of Gaza cannot wait any longer. CEOs of Oxfam America, @SavetheChildren, @RefugeesIntl speak out at the UN to make it clear: the ceasefire is failing.

Children in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo are once again facing a deadly #Ebola outbreak. As the disease spreads in communities already impacted by conflict and displacement, health workers are working urgently to help protect children and families through outbreak prevention, community awareness and essential care. Save the Children has worked in DRC since 1994. We won’t stop now.
