We Fight For
Every Child
Our vision is of a world where every childhood is filled with safety, belonging and play.
Our vision
We believe that no child should have to fight for a safe, happy childhood. We exist to ensure that every child in Africa can thrive from their early years through to adulthood. We fight for children across Africa to lead independent lives through urgent action in education, health and economic resilience.
Our goal is to reach 200,000 people in vulnerable situations, through community driven action in education, health and economic resilience, thus ending cycles of injustice for good.
Between 2022 – 2025 we supported:
By 2030, our goal is to reach:
186,226
children
to access inclusive education and safer spaces
200,000
people
in vulnerable situations
Our Impact
We work in East and West Africa, supporting children to thrive from their early years through to adulthood.
We work in five countries: the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ghana, Rwanda, Sri Lanka and Uganda.

How your support changes lives
Four-year-old Sanyu lives in the Kyaka refugee settlement in Uganda.
His mother thought he would never be able to go to school due to his disability on his right arm and leg which makes walking difficult, especially on the hilly terrain of the settlement. With support from Chance for Childhood, Sanyu’s mum enrolled him in a local and after providing Sanyu with some orthotic shoes, he now walks to school hand-in-hand with his friends.
