JOIN THE MOVEMENT THAT'S DOING
WHATEVER IT TAKES TO HELP CHILDREN

Children have rights. Their voices must be heard and their futures protected. But nobody can do it alone.
That’s why we build partnerships with local organizations, activists, children and communities, backed by thousands
of Canadians. Working together to achieve lasting results for millions of children, transforming lives and the future we share.

MAKE A REAL IMPACT, WHEREVER THE NEED.

With over 100 years of expertise, we are the world’s first and leading independent organization devoted to defending children’s rights. We go where others won’t to ensure children reach their potential. Our motto is Whatever it takes. Wherever the need. And that’s an attitude that gets results.

  • We’ve helped:

  • 38 million+
    Children
    in 117 countries

  • 26.8 million children
    through our health &
    nutrition programs

  • 7.7 million children
    build brighter futures
    through education

  • 15.5 million children

Through our partnerships with local, front-line resources, we listen to what children need and do whatever it takes – every day and in times of crisis – to deliver immediate results and long-term impact for sustainable social change.

CHILD SPOTLIGHT: FATIMA

CHILD SPOTLIGHT: FATIMA

Fatima (9 months) and her mother were referred to a stabilization center in Somalia, where they moved after being displaced by drought and losing their livestock. Fatima is not able to get enough nutritional food and their water supply isn’t of a good quality. Fatima had been very sick with diarrhea and vomiting.

In addition to treatment, the center also provided the family with her IV fluid, milk and RUTF, plus other medicines. Her mother Anima was given meals while staying with Fatima during treatment. Without this, she says that she might have had to leave the center, no matter what condition her daughter was in.
