SUBMISSIONS FOR CHILDREN OF WAR, VOLUME 2
​
This is a charity anthology in support of Palestinian children. The toll of war is a high one and to grow up suffering from PTS is crippling for a person's development. The aim of this anthology is to raise awareness about the toll of war on children and to support a charity directly contributing to the physical and mental well-being of Palestinian children. You will have a chance in this form to contribute to the selection of the specific charity this anthology will support.
