ChildFund International
- F Funder
Description
ChildFund International's approach has evolved into one of community development, focused on strengthening families and community structures that make up a child’s environment. They use an individual sponsor-to-child approach to support this work, with sponsor funds pooled to improve life in the communities where sponsored children live.
They aim to help deprived, excluded and vulnerable children have the capacity to improve their lives and the opportunity to become young adults, parents and leaders who bring lasting and positive change in their communities. They also aim to promote societies whose individuals and institutions participate in valuing, protecting and advancing the worth and rights of children.
