Donor Testimonies
Corine Aartman – Individual donor of DCI
“The work of Defence for Children is important to me because DCI is demanding policymakers to take responsibility of what’s happening to children who are on the move, or in prison. These children need to be heard and their rights need to be upheld. The fact that DCI works both at micro and at macro level, for example with individual migrant children as well as give input to policy making at a global level, makes them unique. What they do is far from easy, but they keep at it, with dogged determination. With people on the ground, many of them volunteers, they gather these stories and data from all over the world and report on it I admire them and have decided to support DCI’s mission by contributing some of my time and money. I hope any people will join me in supporting them. Because every child has a right to grow up in a safe and nurturing environment, to use her/his voice and to lead a fulfilling life.”
Ebonique Boyd – Individual donor of DCI
“We all support the atrocities of the world because of a lack of courage and action on our part. I’ll never be a soldier, a celebrity or a lawyer. All I might have is a job, a bit of money to spend and a conviction: We must fight injustice. That’s why I sought an organisation that would fight injustice in a way that I could stand up for. When I looked at DCI’s global commitment, I realized that a monthly financial commitment was the least I could do. My money will go to an organisation that fights for a just world in a way that matches my beliefs and values. With DCI, I will be supporting real and lasting change in the lives of thousands of children that will reach beyond my own generation.”
