This is what childhood looked like before the war. 💔

This photo was taken three years ago, before everything changed.

Three beautiful, smiling children. Safe, happy, and surrounded by the people who loved them. They had a home, a family, and a future that should have been filled with ordinary childhood memories. Now, @is.kr200 who is just 20 years old, is doing everything he can to care for his orphaned nieces and nephews.

At an age when Ismail should be focused on his own education, friendships, and future, he has taken on the responsibility of keeping these children alive.

Ismail is a computer programmer who dreams of continuing his university education and building a future where he can provide for his family. But right now, even meeting their most basic needs is a daily struggle.

He desperately needs help with:
🥛 Milk for the children 
🍞 Food and other daily necessities 
📚 University f33s so he can continue his education

I keep looking at this photo and thinking about everything that has been stolen from these children. Their loved ones. Their sense of safety. The childhood they deserved.

We cannot give them back the people they've lost. We cannot undo what they've experienced.

But we CAN help make sure they have food to eat. We can help Ismail continue his education. We can remind this family that they haven't been forgotten.

Ismail is only 20. He shouldn't have to carry all of this alone.

Please consider pitching in, even if it's just a few d0ll4rs. If you can't, sh4ring this post can help us reach someone who can.

These children deserve the opportunity to grow up, to feel safe, to laugh like they did in this photo, and to have a future beyond survival.

Please help me give Ismail and these children a little bit of hope.
