What we do
Our mission to help
We provide educational opportunities and disaster relief assistance to poverty-stricken children in developing countries.
Through relief efforts and academic resources, these children become empowered to grow into independent adults who will then become supportive leaders in creating a self-sustaining community.
The mission of Child United is to pursue the following principles:
Empowerment
Child United wants to inspire the younger generation through educational opportunities and advancement and to instill a sense of hope for their future.
Education
The focus is on learning and helping youth establish goals and following through on their commitments for education.
Child United promotes education as a means of getting out of a cycle of poverty.
Passion
Child United wants to expand the perspective of young people to make them aware of life and its possibilities.
Support
An individual is dramatically influenced by their support system including family, friends, and the overall community.
Child United hopes to surround youth in a caring, inclusive learning environment.
