our mission

We connect people around the world in the fight to end poverty. Working together, we invest in the lives of children and youth, build the healthy environments they need to thrive, and empower them to create lasting change in their own lives and communities.

Your support is what makes all this possible. Learn more about how our programs are helping more than 218,000 children and their families break free from generational poverty.

 
By investing in children, together, we have the opportunity to create real, long-lasting change for families and communities around the world.
