Climate change and natural disasters are devastating the lives of children in poverty at an alarming rate. Every year, floods, earthquakes and storms tear through vulnerable communities, and children pay the highest price. Not just in the moment, but for years after.

In this video, we explore how natural disasters and climate change impact children in poverty: the physical dangers, the hidden emotional trauma, the disrupted education and the cycles that are incredibly hard to break. We also look at why local presence — consistent, prepared and caring — can genuinely change the trajectory of a child’s life.
