Children are the future of our planet and it is our responsibility to provide them them with the resources they need to lead healthy, safe and secure lives that will equip them for a better future. The Middle East Children's Alliance (MECA) offers direct aid and supports various programs that benefit the children of Palestine, Lebanon and Iraq. Through fund-raising and awareness programs, the non-profit organization also educates the general public about the struggles that plague the daily lives of these children and the role that the United States foreign policy has to play. Through its support of various programs in the Middle East, MECA offers these children the means to a better life. Over the years, MECA has funded the construction of kindergartens, counseling centers, water purification systems and other resources that have changed countless lives with the help of generous donations.
