Objectives

Who We Are.

We believe that every child deserves the right to safety and to be empowered through education. Working in some of the toughest areas in the world, we strive to ensure that every child has the chance to go to school and learn.

Where We Work.

We began our work in Sierra Leone in 2008 working with a small number of street children, nine years later we have helped to transform the lives of more than 100,000 children across Sierra Leone, Liberia, Nepal and Nigeria. 

Our Impact.

Our focus is on low-cost sustainable solutions that make a real difference to the children we support. Since 2008, we have helped over 100,000 children to go to school and learn and supported over 15,000 families to set up businesses so they can afford the cost of educating their children long-term.

Activities

What We Do.

We work with local partners to provide sustainable solutions that have the maximum impact. We focus on protecting children, educating children, empowering families and supporting children in emergencies. Education is the target that all our projects aim towards reaching.
