In the clip, which revealed there is a separate section at the airport where families are welcomed and provided with clothes, food, toys, and hygiene care, Jennifer can be seen playing with children and learning more about the initiative from workers from Save from Children.
Captioning the post, she penned: "Tucked away from a bustling Dulles Airport terminal, families from Afghanistan—refugees who fought alongside our soldiers, who supported our troops as their drivers, translators, administrators, women who fought for equal rights—are being welcomed into our country in an area curtained off from the public."
She added: "A diaper changing station, clothes, blankets, a teddy bear, staffed child safe places to play may sound simple, but to these parents and children they represent care, freedom, joy, safety. Children who feel safe PLAY. Play supports children’s longer term resilience, their ability to bounce back.

Jennifer paid an emotional visit to Operation Allies Welcome at Dulles Airport
"On my visit to both Dulles and the Expo Center on Monday, 126 children were lined up and waiting when Save the Children staff opened the play space for the day. This is a human endeavor. I am so grateful Save the Children is helping the US Dept of State welcome Afghan refugees, and hope you can help me support these families and this work."
Fans were quick to react, with many posting crying face emojis, while others praised Jennifer for her work.
One responded: "This woman is really a Lady. No show, no drama. She is emotionally mature. She is a role model." A second said: "This is the most healing thing I’ve seen in months. Thank you for your example of kindness."
A third added: "My heart. Jennifer Garner is a national treasure and all around amazing human."
