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.
