Giving Grows Here
Generosity has the power to change a child’s life forever. At ChildFund, our mission is to help children around the globe grow up healthy, educated, skilled and safe, no matter what. But we can’t do it alone. That’s where you come in.
When you decide to give, you are not simply making a major gift, you are creating opportunities for children to thrive, families to grow stronger, and communities to flourish.
Get in touch with a dedicated member of our Philanthropy team today, who specialize in larger giving, to begin investing in children’s futures and helping entire communities move toward brighter tomorrows.

Susan Bush
Highlighted Donor
Susan Bush, an avid traveler, devoted grandmother, and passionate quilter from Fort Collins, Colorado, has been connected to ChildFund since childhood. Inspired by her parents’ deep commitment to service, Susan grew up writing letters to her family’s sponsored child and learning that giving was a way of life. That early example blossomed into a lifelong dedication to helping children around the world. For Susan, her projects with ChildFund reflect not only her parents’ values but also her own vision of a compassionate, connected world. “The whole world is our community,” she says. “By helping others, we’re helping the whole world to advance.”
