Mission Statement
To transform lives by connecting two people — a supporter with a generous heart and a child with significant needs. Supporters’ lives are transformed by being part of a team making a real difference in the world and creating positive ripple effects for children and generations to come. Children’s lives are transformed by knowing they have a team that cares about them in a world that can seem hopeless and by developing life skills that will help them break the cycle of poverty for good.
About This Cause
Children International's Programs help children living in some of the worst conditions imaginable, children who have little support or chance for a better life. Our organization gives them opportunity by providing them with critical services, material benefits and educational support to help them create brighter futures for themselves. From the time children first enter the program as early as the age of 2 to the time they graduate at the age of 19, they receive vital necessities and benefits that foster their growth and development, such as: • Regular medical exams, nutritional screenings, follow-up care and medicine • Dental screenings and treatment • Educational assistance like school supplies, uniforms and help with tuition and school fees • New clothing and shoes • Youth programs to build leadership skills and self-esteem • Scholarships for university or vocational training. Children International also helps families and entire communities by providing: • Anti-parasite treatments for at-risk sponsored children, their families and communities • Education on proper hygiene and sanitation • Basic household items, including cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, sheets and blankets and water storage containers • Home-repair materials and emergency assistance after natural disasters • Good-quality housing and clean, safe drinking water when donations allow. Your gift truly has the power to change lives for the better. No donation is too small to make a difference because the need is immense. Consider that: • Roughly 600 million children in developing countries survive on less than $1 a day. • Approximately 270 million children don’t have access to medical services. • Malnutrition is the cause of more than one-third of global child deaths. • One in five children in developing countries lives without access to clean water. Sources: UNICEF and the World Health Organization Larger donations can fund specific projects like community center construction, housing and clean-water sources; while smaller monthly donations are combined to provide benefits to approximately 340,000 impoverished children around the world. Children International works hard to ensure donations are used in the most effective and efficient way possible to help children receive the care they deserve. Since 1936, Children International has been dedicated to serving some of the world’s poorest children. We are a champion for their undeniable right to medical care, an education and basic human dignity. Children International’s reach extends across the globe, and we operate 17 sponsorship agencies around the world. In addition to our international programs, we work in the United States through our Share America® Program, which operates in partnership with the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. Our dedication to using funds wisely has generated recognition from organizations such as the Better Business Bureau and Consumers Digest magazine, which named Children International as one of the top humanitarian organizations in the United States.
