Donate for educating children with Children in Crisis


Your donations, no matter how big or small, are essential for them to continue their work. Your gift can make a huge difference to the lives of vulnerable children around the world. It costs just £9 a month for them to send a child to school. They provide some of the world's most vulnerable children the education they need to help them change their lives forever.

About Children in Crisis

Children in Crisis was established in 1993 in the UK to give children in some of the world’s poorest countries the education they need to help transform their lives.
Worldwide, one in six children is denied an education. At the heart of our work is the belief that education is the best possible route out of poverty, bringing hope for a better future for families, communities and over time, whole societies.

Children in Crisis’ vision is of a world where all children have access to education to enable them to fulfil their potential to live positive, healthy lives and contribute to the development of the societies in which they live.

What they work

Children in Crisis currently operates in eight countries, working with local communities to meet the needs of children in the most effective way.

They work in partnership with local organisations to provide educational opportunities for some of the world’s most vulnerable children.

In Africa and Asia they support local organisations to develop education programmes for children and their communities. This includes training teachers, building and equipping schools, delivering community education programmes and training in basic health education including HIV prevention.

In Europe, there is a need for drugs education, particularly for children living in societies in which drug and alcohol misuse is common. They work with these children to ensure that they have the information and skills needed to make positive, informed decisions about their own lives.
