She also met many times with senior staff at the White House to advocate for recommendations contained in the Children’s Internet Safety Presidential Pledge, supported by 70+ NGOs and survivor leaders, which calls on the White House to prioritize kids' online safety via aggressive enforcement of existing laws, new policy, and presidential directives. They are listening! As the year comes to a close, the window to make a lasting impact on children’s online safety is still open. Every day, EIE is working to stay ahead of rapidly changing digital risks—informing parents, elevating survivor voices, and pressing policymakers and tech companies to put children first. This work is urgent, and it is only possible because of committed supporters who refuse to accept the status quo. An end-of-year gift to EIE—at any level—helps strengthen prevention efforts, fuel advocacy, and ensure families are not left navigating these dangers alone. Together, we can end the year by advancing real protections for children and setting the stage for safer digital spaces in the year ahead.  Thank you for standing with us.   FUND THE FIGHT!
