CHILDREN OF WAR APPEAL
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The plight of children suffering in the war-torn former Yugoslavia has moved the children of a Wiltshire primary school to donate the proceeds of their Christmas pantomime.
The 80 pupils at Redlynch Church of England Primary School, in Lover, Salisbury, read the Independent's appeal for donations and sent pounds 169.80, collected from two performances of Puss in Boots.
The money, part of pounds 60,000 collected by the Independent's Children of War Appeal, will go to Save the Children, Warchild, Red Cross and Child Advocacy International.
The charities are striving to save children who have endured years of appalling living conditions during the conflict.
