There are more than 2.2 million Iraqi refugees that had to flee Iraq in the past few years. They fled to neighboring countries, often with nothing more than they could carry. The countries around Iraq are having trouble feeding and housing the Iraqi refugees. There are not enough schools for the kids to attend. Many families cannot afford to feed their families, much less pay for schooling. Sadly, many refugee kids have seen things far worse than shown in any R-rated movie, but there is little help available for them. What many people don’t know is that during the Iraq war, many Iraqis helped the US Military. They worked as translators, clerks, constructions workers, etc. Because they helped the US soldiers, they are now in great danger. Many have been kidnapped, beaten and killed. There is a very special project called "The List Project." The List Project is run by an amazing guy named Kirk Johnson. He has collected the names and information regarding more than 900 Iraqis who helped the US and are now in danger because of it. He is trying to help them get asylum in the US. Not only are the brave men and women who worked for the US in danger, but the insurgents often kidnap and beat their kids. Usually the whole family is in danger if any member helped the US Military. The purpose of The List Kids project is to reach out to the Iraqi kids whose parents are on The List. If they are lucky enough to make it to America, I want to be able to let them know they are welcome and safe here. They will be coming to a land and culture so very different from their own. Our goal is to provide every List Kid in the US with a care package each month so that they will know that we care about them. Imagine how hard it will be the first few months when they arrive here in the US and have to learn a new language and culture. As part of THE LIST KIDS project, I collect letters and welcome cards, gift cards (GAP, Old Navy, Borders, Target) and used gaming systems/games for the monthly care packages. I also send a silcone reminder wristband to any one who gives a donation to THE LIST PROJECT. My goal is to raise people's awareness of the Iraqi refugee crisis and let the Iraqi refugee families on THE LIST know that we care about them and have not forgtten them.
