So much more than just a job.

“Seeing our initiatives in action showed me how community driven our work is,” employee Renée Ferguson says of her recent visit to #Uganda. “You see the challenges & resilience of families—& how ChildFund partners w/ communities, not just serves them."

Young #women like Azucena give us so much hope. 🌱

Azucena is a sponsored youth from Sierra Norte de Puebla, #Mexico. On weekends, she volunteers with ChildFund's local partner in the area, Niños Totonacos, to teach the indigenous Totonac language, her native tongue, to children in the community.

You know where your children are. Do you know who they’re talking to online?

Knowing the signs 🛑 of online exploitation can help stop it before it happens. It’s one of the best things you can do for the kids in your life this #SaferInternetDay (and every day).

Esther attends a school in #Kenya that caring people like you have supported for more than 2 decades. We built a dormitory here as a safe place for girls like her to learn free from the pressures to undergo harmful practices like #FGM & child marriage.

How do we ensure children get the most out of their education? Maybe it's time we asked children themselves! 📢

In #SriLanka, where students were struggling from COVID learning loss, we partnered w/ the local gov to develop a more engaging curriculum centered on creativity. 👏🏽
