Our Mission | What We Do


We Do Whatever It Takes

Our pioneering programs address children’s unique needs, giving them a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. In the United States and around the world, our work creates lasting change for children, their families and communities – ultimately, transforming the future we all share. 

It’s important to note that all our work intersects – helping a boy or girl go to school also protects them from dangers such as child trafficking and early marriage. Keeping children healthy from disease or malnutrition means their parents are more likely to avoid costly treatment and be better able to provide for their family.

Because the climate crisis impacts all aspects of children’s lives, so too does Save the Children’s work.

This work is only made possible by the ongoing generosity of our donors, whose valuable support is used in the most cost-effective ways.
