Save the Children

Save the Children is a charity organization that works towards making the world a better place for children by improving and saving their lives. They carry out programs that extend to a variety of important issues such as education, policy and advocacy, protection, health, and emergency response.

Founded in 1919, this organization has changed the lives of over 1 billion children in more than 100 countries by actively developing programs tailored to address specific problems for each community they engage with. They work to understand barriers and build trust, so the effects of their programs are long-lasting and exponentially beneficial to the children in need.

They have developed many ways in which everyone can join their cause, from empowering people to create their own fundraisers for supporting children, or by participating in events of the same nature. They also offer a large number of volunteering programs, including one-time opportunities and ongoing partnerships.

Save the Children has also supported frontline health workers dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic and created virtual education programs for exposed and undeveloped communities.

Location: Donations are available worldwide.
