| It takes 18 euros for a child helpline to help one child.
That may seem like a high price, but let’s consider the facts. Wendy is a 10-year old girl from Asia. She lives in a nice house and goes to a good school in the neighbouring town. On the surface, Wendy’s life seems happy but it’s not. Why not? Wendy is the victim of abuse. She dreads the dark because of the way her father treats her when they are alone. Her father is now becoming increasingly violent after turning to drink when he lost his job a month ago. Wendy has nobody to turn to for help. One day Wendy calls her local child helpline crying. The counsellors at the child helpline talk to Wendy several times over the following two weeks. They refer her to their trusted counselling partner who meets with Wendy and her family for long-term counselling. The child helpline continues to monitor her development several months later. Through continued support from the team at the child helpline, Wendy is leading a happier life. She is doing well at school and wants to become a nurse. Her goal in life is to help others. Help the millions of other Wendys in the world get their own happy ending. Donate now by clicking on the button opposite!
