Right now – children need the essentials to survive. Your donation today will help save lives.
Millions of children are growing up without the basics we all need. From day one, they’re pushed to the edge of survival.
One more drought can tip families into extreme hunger.
One more missed day of school can lead to child marriage.
One more sip of dirty water can turn illness into loss of life.
It's why children urgently need your donation today.
Together we can provide the essentials every child needs: clean water close to home, nutritious food to fuel them as they grow, healthcare when they’re sick, and the classrooms, desks and teachers they need to learn.

How donations are spent
"I had to break stones, which were sold by my aunt. I always felt exhausted.”
In the DRC, goats provided by donations became a herd for Falene’s family. The herd provided an income. The income invested in a local savings group gave her family money when they needed it. A new water point close to home keeps her healthy and now she spends more time playing and at school learning. Proof that your donation will go a really long way.
