Our focus
Poverty, conflicts, disasters and crises are reasons why children suffer worldwide. Save the Children works to ensure that every child grows up healthy, has access to education, and is protected from violence and exploitation.
SHATTERED CHILDHOODS
The Middle Eastern crisis threatens the lives of children. Your donation gives children life-saving support so that they can have better lives and better futures.

Children in need
Childhood Cannot wait
While we’re packing lunches, setting up appointments and taking the kids to school, the lives of other children have come to a standstill. Crises and conflicts are robbing children of things they should never have to do without. A safe place to sleep. A warm meal. The first day of school. A moment of play.
Things to which they have rights – protection, education, nutrition and security – remain largely unattainable.
