About the Company

Street Child

International charity for child safety and education

Street Child is an international charity that helps children in low-resource communities and emergencies stay safe, enter school and keep learning. It works through local organizations to build and repair classrooms, train teachers and support children who have missed education because of poverty, conflict or disaster. Its programs also protect children and help caregivers earn a living, addressing family pressures that keep children out of class. Donations, institutional grants and fundraising events support this work, with local partners shaping delivery around community needs. Founded in Sierra Leone in 2008, Street Child is headquartered in London, England.
