We fight for children's rights

We campaign for long-term change in addition to providing shorter-term support to improve children's lives.

As an independent and global organisation, Save the Children has a powerful voice in campaigning for change, and a track record of success. We encourage decision makers and opinion formers to change policies and practices, locally and globally, to ensure children's rights become reality. 



Our Mission

Save the Children fights for children's rights. We deliver immediate and lasting improvements to children’s lives worldwide.



Our Vision

Save the Children works for:

  • a world which respects and values each child
  • a world which listens to children and learns
  • a world where all children have hope and opportunity
