You can help them build a fearless future.
Right now, thousands of girls urgently need sponsors to help them build a fearless future.
Millions of women and girls live in fear of violence that wears many faces - just because they are girls. Through Child Sponsorship, you can contribute to a generation of fearless girls.
When you sponsor a girl, you can help set her free of fear. Free to learn, grow and to be the fearless girl she’s born to be.
Join our movement to sponsor 1,000 girls by International Day of the Girl.
It's time to break the cycle of harsh realities where girls are forced into child labour, child marriage and early pregnancy because of poverty and other causes.
64 million girls are working instead of learning
12 million girls get married every year
500 million women around the world are illiterate
We work to make sure vulnerable girls across the world get to go to a school so they can help transform their own life and their community. When a girl is educated and knows her rights, she’s twice as likely to send her own children to school.
22 more girls are married every minute. We work with parents and communities to train, inform and support them on improving girls' rights. We protect vulnerable girls from FGM and child marriage.
We help girl children, especially 0 - 5 years old, with good nutrition, protection from infection and disease, and access to medical care. Also, girls shouldn’t have to miss a week of school every month because of their periods. We ensure schools provide appropriate toilets with clean water, giving girls their dignity and privacy.
We make sure girls have a voice from a young age, so they are able to help shape what happens in their community. Nahomy, pictured here, is a sponsored child who has become Youth Mayor of her area in Honduras.
Families who can earn their own income are more free and better able to afford to send their daughters to school. We train women in skills such as farming, set up savings groups and help them to start businesses.
Sponsored children are less likely to be malnourished, to drop out of school, to experience sexual violence, to be trafficked or to be married as a child. Right now, thousands of girls urgently need sponsors to help them build a fearless future.
