Bollywood superstar, Priyanka Chopra who is also a big name in Hollywood shared an emotional message on World Refugee Day.
Priyanka, who is also the UNICEF goodwill ambassador, took to social media and expressed her emotions through a heartfelt message.
The actor also posted a video, that shows her teaching and playing with refugee children.
“On World Refugee Day I am sending all my love to refugee children everywhere,’ she said in the video.
She added, ‘I wish your life full of learning and achieving all your dreams.”
In the caption, she wrote, “The truth is quite simple… the future of this world lies in the hands of the children of today. But the harsh reality is that there is an entire generation of innocent children growing up right now without any prospects for their future. These children are affected by displacement due to serious conflict and emergencies in their various regions. When families are forced to leave their homes due to violence, persecution, natural disasters, they are torn apart and it’s the children that end up suffering the most.”
“The numbers are staggering, yes… but we have to continue to stand for them, in whatever capacity we can as individuals. They are the future and we need to help. Join me and @unicef by clicking the link in my bio to help keep refugee children safe.” She wrote urging people to join the cause.
