Save the Children

We're the world's independent children's charity. We're outraged that millions of children are still denied proper healthcare, food, education and protection. We're working flat out to get every child their rights and we're determined to make further, faster changes.

We're saving lives in emergencies, and improving their futures through long-term development work. We helped 2.6 million people in 30 emergencies this year alone. We deliver life-saving supplies and help to rebuild shattered lives. Our work focuses on achieving four core rights for children: health, freedom from hunger, education and protection. We also inspire people to take action to save children's lives, create movements for change and give children the voice they deserve.

Without your help we wouldn’t be able to save children’s lives. More than 9 million children are still dying every year before their fifth birthday. We need to act together, now, to change this appalling reality. Give your time and save children’s lives.
