Save the Children exists to help every child reach their full potential.
In more than 100 countries including the UK, we help children stay safe, healthy and keep learning. We lead the way on tackling big problems like pneumonia, hunger and protecting children in war, while making sure each child’s unique needs are cared for. We find new ways to reach children who need us most, no matter where they’re growing up.
For a century, we’ve stood up for children and made sure their voices are heard. We wrote the treaty that sets out the rights of every child, and we’ve been upholding them every day since.
We know we can’t do this alone. Together with children, supporters and partners, we work to help every child become who they want to be.
We’re driven by love to take action for children.
Our vision is that every child and young person has a safe and happy childhood, and the foundations they need to thrive.
We fight for the hope and happiness of young people when it is threatened by abuse, exploitation and neglect.
We take inspiration from the courage and hope we see in young people every day, fuelling our belief that a good childhood is something every young person deserves.
Driven by hope and working alongside young people and supporters, we will not rest until together, step-by-step, we’ve created a society built for all children.
