Nearly a quarter of a century after the world's worst nuclear disaster, children's lives are still threatened by the radiation surrounding Chernobyl-- approximately 400 times more potent than that of Hiroshima. Chabad's Children of Chernobyl (CCOC) is the only organization in the world that permanently evacuates and treats children sickened by the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant that took place on April 26, 1986. Today, these children continue to suffer from various cancers, heart maladies, and debilitating birth defects as a consequence of their exposure to the radioactive material in the region, and CCOC does whatever necessary to save these children. To date, CCOC has rescued 2730 children on 92 rescue missions and counting! To help save a child's life, to make a donation and to support this crucial, lifesaving operation please visit www.ccoc.net or call 1-888-888-1999. You can help make a difference.
