Free The Children is an international children’s charity and educational partner. It was founded in 1995 by international children’s right activist Craig Kielburger, and has since grown into the world’s largest network of children helping children through education, with more than one million young people involved in its innovative education and development programs in 45 countries. Our primary goals are to free children from poverty and exploitation and free young people from the notion they are powerless to affect positive change in the world.
Domestically, Free The Children works with more than 3,500 schools and youth groups throughout North America, empowering young people to reach their fullest potential as positive agents of change. Our international projects, led by our holistic and sustainable Adopt a Village model, has brought more than 650 schools and school rooms to youth and provided clean water, health care and sanitation to one million people around the world, freeing children and their families from the cycle of poverty.
