Riding the Rainbow was made possible thanks to an initial contribution by Afrilanthropy and the financial support of Oeuvres de Secours de la Grande Duchesse and André Losch Fondation. But it would not exist as it does today without all of the people that have helped us to grow.
As it stands, at least 89.3 million people have been forcibly displaced worldwide as a result of persecution, conflict, violence, and human rights violations (UNHCR, 2022). This figure includes 13.7 million child refugees and asylum-seekers, and nearly 22.8 million, who are internally displaced due to conflict and violence (United Nations, 2022). Many have witnessed and experienced egregious violence and levels of grief beyond their years.
Whilst these numbers are overwhelming, Riding the Rainbow is an example of how small organizations and the initiative of individuals like you can make a difference. By contributing with your skills and enthusiasm to this initiative you can be part of a global movement and help restore hope for vulnerable people.
