Why Your Monthly Donation Is Important
Save the Children’s ambition is a world in which every child has the right to survive, learn and be protected. We were founded on the belief that every child deserves the chance of a future. This belief underpins everything we do.
Together with families, supporters and partners, we work to help children in the UK and across the world get the future they deserve - focusing our efforts where the need is greatest.
Your donation could help ensure children:
- Get a healthy start in life: from training midwives through to setting up Emergency Health Units, we work to enable safe birth.
- Learn and go to school safely: we campaign for marginalised and poverty stricken children, set up temporary learning spaces and repair damaged schools in conflicts.
- Are protected from hunger: our teams provide counselling, breastfeeding support, malnutrition screening, vitamin supplements and cash transfers.
- Grow up in resilient families: our family tracing team work tirelessly all over the world to reunited children parents and siblings for a lifetime of belonging.
Your monthly donation could provide children and families affected by war, natural disasters and other crises across the world, with life-saving essentials like food, water and healthcare.
The Impact of Donations
We’ve helped 47 million children across the world get the medicine, good food and education they need.
Your donation could help us reach even more children, like Aisha*, Lana* and Lilly.
Aisha*
Aisha’s body was starting to shut down, but after receiving nutrient-rich food paste at Save the Children's Severe Malnutrition Centre in Kenya, she quickly recovered.
Now Aisha is 3 years old and thriving, and her mother Saadia has gained vital knowledge in health and childcare.
* Names changed to protect identities.
Lana*
Tima* and her family were displaced multiple times as fighting expanded across the Gaza strip. She was terrified about where she would be able to give birth safely.
In April 2024 baby Lana* became the first baby to be born at Save the Children’s new maternity unit in the Gaza Strip.
* Names changed to protect identities.
Lilly
Lilly, Jack and mum Alice, from Dundee, received one of our UK grants when life was really tough for the family.
The grant helped Alice to feel empowered as a parent again – as well as being able to buy vital food and clothing for her kids, she could also get them a few treats 'without having to worry'.
Your Donation Matters
For over 100 years, Save the Children have fought for a fairer world for children.
Month after month, in the UK and around the world, we make sure children stay safe, healthy and keep learning through the toughest times. Whether they’re at risk due to conflict, poverty or the global food crisis we ensure we are there providing vital resources such as food, water, education and mental health support to ease their suffering and help recovery.
We could not do this without our supporters who give a donation every month.
Monthly donations allow us to plan for the long term. To be not just reactive, but proactive in thousands of projects helping children across the world, all designed with one thing in mind: to improve the lives of children.
