Friendship and caring make all the difference in a child’s life

Tools and training are essential for children to access education and overcome barriers, but friendship and relationships are also key to healthy emotional growth.

Children Believe is committed to providing safe and inclusive spaces for children to grow and learn, where they can learn about their rights and even play an active role in improving child-protection systems for other kids.

Education can also be expensive, with school fees, books and other learning materials, right down to the simple tools of pencil crayons and paper. So, thanks to donors to our gift catalogue, many young learners will receive a backpack filled with essential supplies, improving their access to an education and future filled with hope.

Watch the Heart Touching Films video below to see a beautiful example of how school can be a place for friendships to blossom and how children can thrive when they have access to education and the necessary materials.

You can help a child by providing the tools kids need for school through our Gifts for Good catalogue.
