Free The Children believes in a world where all young people are free to achieve their fullest potential as agents of change. We are a charity and educational partner that empowers youth to remove barriers that prevent them from being active local and global citizens. Our domestic programs educate, engage and empower hundreds of thousands of youth in North America and the UK. Our international projects, led by our holistic and sustainable Adopt a Village model, has brought over 650 schools and school rooms to youth and provided clean water, health care and sanitation to one million people around the world, freeing children and their families from the cycle of poverty.

Free The Children is committed to domestic programming because we believe that young people will change the world once they’re free from the notion that they’re powerless to make a difference. We know that sparking change at a domestic level is just as important as the work we do overseas.
Young people everywhere have a right to be free from poverty, thirst, exploitation and disease. Through our holistic and sustainable international development programs in Kenya, Sierra Leone, India, Nicaragua, rural China, Ecuador and Haiti, we remove barriers to enable youth and their families to exercise those very freedoms.
From our mentorship opportunities to our leadership training, from travel opportunities to the chance to work with some of the world’s most influential leaders, find out why Free The Children is an amazing place to work.
Written by the youth programming team and packed with articles for students and teachers, Voices International is Free The Children’s monthly newsletter. Every issue has a message from Craig and features the latest on world issues and upcoming campaign and events.
Free The Children has been working in Haiti for the past ten years. When the earthquake struck in January 2010, we responded with emergency support and have since implemented a long-term development and rehabilitation strategy.
Free The Children's work abroad and at home would not be possible without the support of our generous donors. Every contribution helps us create sustainable solutions for communities in the developing world and empower young people at home to make a difference.
