As the COVID-19 pandemic increases, children around the world are facing growing risks. Not only do school closings disrupt education, but also, they can affect children's health and well-being. Kids are now stuck at home without access to school meals, books and, in rural America, computers, broadband, or even print outs from schools that can't afford paper and ink. In the United States alone, 30 million children who rely on school for both learning and meals are at great risk.
In seeking ways to support our broader community, Nuria Beauty founder Naomi Furgiuele commented, "At Nuria, we love helping people with their self-care, but community is also an important part of who we are. So many of us want to help, but it can be challenging to know what to do from a distance. That's why we're thrilled to partner with Save the Children to help connect all of us to the children and communities in greatest need during this difficult time."
As the global leader in child-focused humanitarian response, Save the Children is helping ensure schools and communities have the support they need to keep vulnerable children eating and learning during the pandemic. Plus, the nonprofit has launched Coronavirus and Kids: Resources from Save the Children, to provide parents and caregivers helpful tips and free learning resources.
"Save the Children is concerned that wide-scale learning loss could be among the biggest and longest-lasting impacts coronavirus has on children across America," said Shane Garver, senior director of Save the Children's rural education programs. "With the support of partners including Nuria Beauty, we are making sure children in some of rural America's poorest communities can continue to learn and get the nutritional meals they need during these massive and unprecedented school closures."
