Ben Stiller Instagram – This awesome photo is by my friend @michaelmuller7, from our recent trip with @refugees to Guatemala. 
Out of focus because we can’t show you their faces. These kids and parents fear retribution from gangs who perpetrate violence and extortion and sexual trafficking in many parts of Central America. 
These kids need a voice and understanding and most of all compassion. They flee for their lives and looking for safety.

Ben Stiller Instagram – A snippet of an interview with the first family I met in Guatemala on my recent mission with @refugees to Northern Central America .  This mother, who’s face we can’t show because she fears retribution from gangs back in El Salvador, was explaining that her sons hair got really long because he was afraid to leave the house to get it cut. Gangs were intimidating him and his father and the whole family. So they had to flee the place they lived  all their lives. 
@refugees helps them with rent and supplies for a small food stand they run from the same room they sleep in. 
The smart, elegant guy translating is James, who works the field in this region. 
I’ve met many  people working with UNHCR  like him who have a huge passion for helping others.

Their work and commitment are really inspiring and the backbone of what @refugees does.
