We believe in a world where every child grows up healthy, safe and educated – playing, learning and looking forward to a future filled with possibility and potential.We have designed our program to ensure children have what they need to grow and develop . Safeguarding the health of children living in poverty is essential to improving their quality of life, enabling them to stay in school. We work tirelessly to safeguard children from all forms of abuse and exploitation, including physical, emotional, sexual abuse and neglect. Children living in poverty are particularly vulnerable to abuse, neglect and exploitation. When you help a child, you change their future, helping them see beyond the daily struggles of poverty. We devote ourselves to helping children of all faiths, cultures, backgrounds and race — without imposing any religious obligation.
