Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Arms Around The Child (AATC) is committed to transforming the lives of children who have faced extreme adversity, including orphans, abandoned children, and those rescued from abuse or trafficking. Operating in Ghana, South Africa, and India, we provide safe homes where children can heal and regain hope. Our support extends beyond shelter, recently expanding with the opening of a school to offer education and essential life skills. This initiative empowers children to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future, focusing on their long-term well-being and growth.

It provides a home, treatment and protection for those kids infected/affected by HIV/AIDS in India and Africa. It makes such a difference to so many, not only because it provides necessary care and comfort now, but more importantly because it is aimed at nurturing children who really are the best hope for our future. There are 16.6 million children out there that need our help. That need you.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-left; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969);"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-left; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969);"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Please help me raise &pound;1,000 and win some victories for humanity.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-left; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969);"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-left; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969);"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Training for it will be quite interesting, so I will keep you posted on the developments&nbsp;;)</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-left; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969);">&nbsp;</p> </p>
