Andreas P. Parpas, author of a new book, “Alexander the Great in Erbil: TheMilitary Battle of Gaugamela 331 B.C.; The Political Victory at Arbela,” has announced that royalties from his recently released book will be donated to support Iraq’s most vulnerable children. Born in Cyprus, Parpas also spent time in Iraq and researched this book […]
On September 7, 2014, the UN reported that nearly 50 percent of up to 1.8 million Iraqis displaced since January are children. This tragedy follows earlier reports from UNICEF in 2012 that there were already about 800,000 orphans in Iraq after years of war and sectarian violence.
This ongoing humanitarian crisis poses an urgent threat to the future security and stability of Iraq. Orphaned, displaced, and street children who are desperately poor are dangerously vulnerable to recruitment and exploitation by criminals or terrorists, as well as physical abuse and human trafficking. We need donors and sponsors to help us with supplies. Unless loving action is taken now, many of these extremely vulnerable children may reach adulthood without help for the trauma and suffering they have experienced. The need is urgent.
