See how we’re helping children believe they can reach their dreams

Education is a powerful tool to help kids reach their dreams, but barriers — such as child marriage and child labour — make accessing quality education difficult for many children around the world. 

We believe access to a quality education is one of the most important ways to help children live and dream fearlessly. So, we support kids in Africa, Asia and The Americas to do just that by championing thriving communities, advancing child rights and protection, promoting equality for girls and partnering with children for change.

During the past 60 years, with the support of 20+ local partners, we’ve encouraged more than 1.2-million vulnerable children in 460+ communities to grow into educated and empowered young citizens.

Watch the video below to learn more about how we’re making a difference. You can help break the barriers to education by sponsoring a child today.

About Children Believe

Children Believe works globally to empower children to dream fearlessly, stand up for what they believe in — and be heard. For 60+ years, we’ve brought together brave young dreamers, caring supporters and partners, and unabashed idealists. Together, we’re driven by a common belief: creating access to education — inside and outside of classrooms — is the most powerful tool children can use to change their world.
