ChildFund International

ChildFund is a global child-focused development and protection agency and a founding member of the ChildFund Alliance.

ChildFund works throughout Asia, Africa and the Americas — including the United States – to connect children with what they need to grow up healthy, educated, skilled and safe, no matter where they are. Last year, we reached 14.8 million children and family members in 23 countries through 200+ local, grassroots organizations. We know that locally led change is sustainable change when it comes to protecting children's rights and well-being.

For several decades, ChildFund has tackled challenges head-on. We are local by design, built on trust and deeply focused on children and their communities. Our approach was made for this moment: when global challenges demand solutions built with, and shaped by, the people living them.

Impact isn’t our aspiration. It’s our outcome.

We deliver it by mobilizing youth, governments, the private sector, partners and community leaders to solve problems no single actor can take on alone. We measure success in lives transformed and systems strengthened. And we scale proven strategies that reach children — with our partners in ChildFund Alliance — across 60+ countries.  

What really sets us apart? Our impact doesn’t expire when the funding cycle does. Backed by 160,000+ individual donors and a global network committed to change that endures, ChildFund invests resources and expertise alongside our partners to create solutions that are community owned and built to last.

When children grow up healthy, educated, skilled and safe, they shape the futures they imagine.  ChildFund delivers real, scalable impact so they can build them.
