SAVE THE CHILDREN

Children’s lives, safety, well-being, and futures are under attack in an increasingly dangerous and unequal world.

Nearly 300 million people – or 1 in 27 people – are expected to need humanitarian assistance this year. We will aim to assist 15.9 million children across 46 countries in response to the most significant threat to children’s rights in recent memory.

Together, we will ensure no child is left behind. Join us!
