Plan is a global children’s charity. We work with children in the world’s poorest countries to help them build a better future.

 

For over 75 years we’ve been taking action and standing up for every child’s right to fulfil their potential by:

 

  • giving children a healthy start in life, including access to safe drinking water 

  • securing the education of girls and boys 

  • working with communities to prepare for and survive disasters

  • inspiring children to take a lead in decisions that affect their lives 

  • enabling families to earn a living and plan for their children’s future

 

With your support children, families and entire communities have the power to move themselves from a life of poverty to a future with opportunity.
