WAR CHILD- Saving Childhood for Kids in War

 Nikki Whaites joins The Good Radio Host, Frankie Picasso on Thursday, March 26th at 1:00 pm EST.

Nikki is the Deputy Director of International Programs for War Child Canada, an organization that helps children in war torn countries reclaim their childhood through education, justice and opportunity 

Nikki is hands on working in both areas of conflict and post conflict,  over-seeing the implementation and ongoing  execution of the programs WARChild has established throughout the organization's countries of operation - Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, South Sudan and Uganda. Overall, her work has taken her to dozens of countries including Haiti, Bangladesh, India, Ghana, Mozambique and Egypt.

War Child believes that these programs are vital for children in war-affected communities if they are to have the chance to reclaim their childhood and break the cycle of poverty and violence.
