Save the Children

Around the world, Save the Children:

  • Provides lifesaving supplies and emotional support for children caught up in disasters like floods, famine and wars
  • Campaigns for long-term change to improve children’s lives
  • Improves children’s access to the food and healthcare they need to thrive
  • Secures a good quality education for the children who need it most
  • Protects the world’s most vulnerable children, including those separated from their families because of war, natural disasters, extreme poverty and exploitation
  • Works in the poorest countries to help families out of the poverty cycle, so they can feed and support their children

By working with others, Save the Children has played a role in reducing child deaths in recent years, from 12 million a year to 5.9 million a year.
