Help Children in Armed Conflict
More and more children are growing up in war zones, with their health, education and safety at stake daily. Through our partners in the ChildFund Alliance, we're working to protect and care for them.
In 2024, the world witnessed a heartbreaking surge in violence against children in war zones — a staggering 41,370 grave violations and a 25% increase from the previous year. Behind every number is a child with a name, a dream and a right to peace.
Through our partner organizations in the ChildFund Alliance, ChildFund is supporting crisis response efforts in some of the world's most dangerous conflict zones, including Gaza, Ukraine and Democratic Republic of the Congo. Your generous donations help ensure that more children have the protection and care they need to thrive.
to children, families and communities affected by emergencies in the form of food, clean water and other essentials, like blankets and hygiene kits. Depending on the situation, we may distribute these items directly to affected families or give them funds to purchase what they need most.
to give children a safe place to play, learn and just be kids – activities that are crucial to their recovery from the trauma of emergencies. These spaces protect children and allow their parents time to find shelter, food, water and other help they need.
on disaster preparedness so that when emergencies happen, children, families and communities know how to respond and can recover more quickly.
