The Big Bird Fund aims to create positive impact for children and young adults who have suffered difficult past experiences.  Examples of these past experiences are having become a refugee, life in refugee camps, (sexual) intimidation and assault at a young age, or, the experience of a significant illness at a young age.  At Big Bird we strive to create positive impact specifically during the recovery period;  improving the facilities of the locations of recovery (such as refugee camps) and the personal development (such as education) during the time spent there.
