During crises, conflicts and disasters, it's the children who often suffer the most. 415 million girls and boys live in a conflict area, 149 million children are growing up under most dangerous circumstances, and the number of severe children’s rights violations is still increasing.

OUR EMERGENCY AID –SAVE THE CHILDREN IS WORKING WORLDWIDE TO HELP CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES.

Children are particularly affected by wars, conflicts and natural disasters such as the current earthquake in Afghanistan, the covid-pandemic or the conflict in Syria. The Save the Children emergency aid teams are on the ground when it comes to providing help for children immediately – as is presently the case in Afghanistan or in the conflict situations in Yemen and Syria.

Your donation helps us to provide help and protection for the most deprived and marginalised children worldwide. Your donation is used where help is most urgently needed.

How your donation can help:

With 50 Swiss francs

we could equip three children with school materials after a natural disaster.

With 100 Swiss francs

you could help us to supply a family of seven with basic foodstuffs for four weeks after a natural disaster.

With 200 Swiss francs

you could enable a family to rebuild their home after a natural disaster.
