4 years, 8 months agoWe work with local organizations to ensure children around the world are safe, in school and learning.
Street Child works to see all children kept safe, in school and learning—especially in low resource environments and emergencies.
Our vision is a world where it is seen as unacceptable for a child not to be in education. But today there are 250 million school-aged children around the world who are not in education. Millions more children are in school but failing to learn.
Street Child believes that education is a fundamental right and achieving universal basic education is the single greatest step toward eliminating the inequality gap and global poverty.
We go to places where others don’t go, where we seek out remote, hard-to-reach, fragile and disaster-affected states that are forgotten about and ignored. It’s in these contexts where our pragmatic and cost-effective approaches can make a real difference to a child’s future.
Street Child works to remove the complex social, economic and structural barriers to education wherever they lie. We are there to close the gaps through which the most marginalised children can slip. Our work includes not only building schools and training teachers but also protecting children and livelihood support for caregivers to ensure they can afford the cost of their children’s education.
Wherever we work, we partner with local organisations and communities which allows us to be responsive and nimble. We use simple, low-cost and replicable solutions that allow us to create maximum impact for the most children.
We started out supporting 100 street-connected children in Sierra Leone in 2008. Since then, we have impacted one million marginalised children in over 25 countries around the world.

Street Child works to ensure children are safe, in school and learning even, and especially, in low resource environments and emergencies. We work with an expanding network of 95+ local organisations and a focus on the power and purpose of inspirational local level organisations sits at the heart of all we do – and has done so since our first partnership in Sierra Leone in 2008. Today Street Child works across 22 countries in Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
