As Little Amal walks, we raise urgently needed funds for displaced children around the world. Together with our partners Choose Love, The Amal Fund has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for children who have fled war and persecution.

Little Amal’s journeys seek to change the narrative surrounding refugees and migrants, towards the contributions and potential they carry within them, including the hope they bring as they build a new life and livelihood, enhancing communities as they do so.

By placing Amal in powerful places with high visibility, we challenge the notion that vulnerable, marginalised individuals and communities are to be feared, and instead invite communities to embrace and honour them.

We hope that Amal’s journeys might encourage advocacy and strengthen awareness, empathy and conversation around the global refugee crisis at a time when it is sorely needed, as policy debates rage around immigration.
