Postcards to Africa

Over 32,000 children have been abducted, tortured, and forced to become soldiers by a guerrilla army in Northern Uganda. Those who escape are deeply wounded and lonely.

GenerationPulse aims to reach out to these children of war, and we need your help.

Please send a message of friendship and hope to a child today. Just make a postcard that expresses what peace of any kind means to you.
