In a world wracked by violence, fear and extreme inequality, children are paying the highest price. At this pivotal moment, we – the world – are failing our children.

Over the past year, leaders have slashed critical funding, decimating an already fragile safety net for far too many.
 

Now, we’re seeing the life-threatening result of our collective failures. Children's health, safety and lives are at risk. Critical services demolished. Health clinics closed. Vaccination campaigns halted. Children forced out of their homes and schools. And for the first time in years, progress on child mortality is reversing.

Guided by children’s families and communities, we’re responding with determination – and your ongoing support is essential to keep our programs running.

You can help power this lifesaving work – even as funding cuts continue to take their toll on children worldwide. Please, rush your donation to help ensure we can reach as many children as possible right now.

John, we're at a critical breaking point. Hard-won progress for children around the globe is being dismantled in real time. We cannot stand by while kids pay the price.

The world will continue to change – sometimes suddenly, sometimes painfully. But for more than 100 years, one thing at Save the Children has remained unshakable: We put children first. Always. Everywhere.

In moments like this, the choice is clear. We must act now to protect children’s safety, health and futures – wherever they live.
