Save the Children

Save the Children believes every child deserves a future

In the United States and around the world, StC works every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes and children are most vulnerable, they are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We do whatever it takes for children - every day and in times of crisis – transforming their lives and the future we share. Since founding over 100 years ago, they have changed the lives of over one billion children. Save the Children has been operating in Ukraine since 2014. Today, the recent escalation in hostilities in Ukraine is putting 7.5 million children in grave danger.

Our Work Around the World

Every child deserves a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. Yet, an estimated 5.4 million children under age 5 still die each year from preventable causes, 250 million children around the world can’t read, despite years of schooling, and far too many children are experiencing physical and emotional abuse, sexual exploitation, deprivation, and neglect. That’s why StC is working in more than 100 countries to change the lives of over 100 million children every year

Our Work in the United States

The U.S. still trails nearly all other advanced countries in helping children reach their full potential despite major advances for children over the past 30 years. Across the nation, 1 in every 7 children experiences shockingly high rates of hunger, school dropouts, teenage pregnancy and/or child death.

Educating children gives them the tools to fight poverty, be healthy and safe. StC works in over 200 of the poorest communities in rural America – where they are often the only child-focused nonprofit; helping hundreds of thousands of children each year.

Samaritan's Purse

Our Team is Working to Save Lives and Relieve Suffering in Ukraine

Samaritan's Purse has established an Emergency Field Hospital on the outskirts of Lviv, in western Ukraine, to care for those suffering as war rages on. The initial patients arrived on March 14.

The field hospital has two operating rooms, with capacity for 14 major surgeries or 30 minor surgeries per day. There are nearly 60 total inpatient beds, including four intensive care unit beds and four step-down beds. The emergency room can handle 100 patients per day. The facility also has a pharmacy and its own water and sanitation system.

“God calls us to go into crisis areas to help those who are most vulnerable,” said Franklin Graham, president of Samaritan's Purse. “As the conflict escalates in Ukraine, our international disaster response teams with doctors, nurses, and other specialists are equipped and ready to help people in Jesus' Name. We want them to know that God loves them and has not forgotten them.”

Samaritan's Purse is also operating a 24-hour medical clinic at a train station in Lviv. We are seeing dozens of patients a day at that location, which serves as a triage center and stabilization point.
