Around the world, too many children start life at a disadvantage simply because of where and when they are born.

Millions of children are dying from preventable causes, and face poverty, violence, disease, and hunger. They are caught up in war zones and disasters they did nothing to create. And they are denied an education and other basic rights owed to them.

All children deserve better.

Together with our many partners and supporters worldwide, we find new solutions for children, grounded in our 100+ years of expertise.

With more than 20,000 dedicated staff, employed by Children Helping Hands International and 29 members of Children Helping Hands, across more than 100 countries, we respond rapidly to humanitarian emergencies, deliver innovative development programmes, and ensure children's voices are heard through our advocacy and campaigning to build a better future for and with children.

Our ambition for 2030 is to inspire progress and achieve three breakthroughs, creating a world in which all children:

• Survive: No child dies from preventable causes before their fifth birthday
• Learn: All children learn from a quality basic education
• Are Protected: Violence against children is no longer tolerated.

Our bold ambition builds on 100 years' experience of bringing together children, communities, civil society, governments, businesses, and donors to achieve lasting, positive change for children.

We are a global membership organisation, made up of Children Helping Hands International and 29 national members.

We share one name, one strategy, and one ambition for all children to survive, learn, and be protected.
