The child's parents made it from Damascus to Aleppo to Kobani. They paid $4000 for the mother, father, 4 year old Aylani and his brother, to make it from a beach in Turkey to the Greek island of Kos. The boat capsized and the mother and children were drowned. Only the father survived, so distraught he is going back to Kobani for burial. A huge wave of migrants are leaving the war tonr areas in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Somalia and Eritrea, in North Africa, increasing the urgency of resettlement efforts, and European efforts for negotiating peace in the region.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
