Ms Rachel to raise funds for Gaza's children
“Children should never experience the horrors of war, these are grave violations of their human rights."
SHAH ALAM - Preschool teacher turned YouTube sensation Rachel Accurso, better known as Ms Rachel announced her plans to raise funds for children in Gaza, Sudan, Congo and Ukraine.
In a video posted on X, she said that an idea came to her and it is called ‘Messages of love to children for children’.
“I am wondering if I can get your help with it, please tag Cameo in the comments so we can make this happen together.
“The idea is I will make videos for little ones and all the money raised on my end will go to Save the Children’s Emergency Fund which will go to children living in conflict such as Gaza, Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo and Ukraine.
“Hopefully I can make little ones smile by giving them a personal video and then the money will go to help more children living in unimaginable circumstances.
“Children should never experience the horrors of war, these are grave violations of their human rights. Children should be protected, children should have healthy food, clean water, protection from violence and a safe place to live,” she said in the video.
