**Giving Kids a Voice in the Fight Against Poverty**
**Meet the Young Heroes Changing Albania**
In a world where over 600 million children live in extreme poverty, it's amazing to see kids making a difference. In Albania, a team of young people are joining forces with UNICEF to amplify the voices of children and help bridge the gap between young voices and the mission to end poverty.
They are **Ambassadors for their peers**, raising awareness and funds for education, healthcare, and their communities. With the help of UNICEF, they are learning leadership skills, speaking out against inequality, and inspiring others to take action.
**Empowering Young People to Lead the Change**
As young people grow in confidence, so does their influence. They use social media to share stories of inequality, encouraging their friends to join the fight. In turn, they receive training on advocacy and community engagement, allowing them to better understand UNICEF's mission.
"It's amazing to see the impact they can make when given the opportunity," said a UNICEF representative. "Their passion and creativity are invaluable assets in the fight against poverty."
**Every Child Deserves a Chance**
Across the world, **1 in 5 children** live below the poverty line. In Albania, young people are leading the charge to change this statistic. By supporting their efforts, you can help provide educations, healthcare, and vital resources for communities in need.
When children like these UNICEF Ambassadors succeed, entire communities benefit. Families receive access to clean water, sanitation, and decent living conditions. Young people avoid dropping out of school, gaining skills and knowledge to break the cycle of poverty.
**Stories of Hope and Resilience**
Meet **Leart**, a young leader from Tirana, Albania.
**"I realized that even small actions can make a big difference", she says.** With UNICEF's support, Leart has created community programs to promote education and career development for marginalized children.
**Thanks to the support of people like you, Leart's work has empowered over 100 children** to stay in school and start their own businesses.
Local communities are witnessing the impact firsthand. Families are getting access to clean water and sanitation facilities. Health outcomes have improved, and children are healthier and more confident.
