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 work to protect, educate and create lasting change for every child threatened by violence, neglect and conflict.

Story

In 2025 a team of amazing fundraisers will be taking on the iconic TCS London Marathon in support of Hope for Children and Chance for Childhood.

We work with children in vulnerable situations, especially, but not limited to children experiencing disability and special educational needs across east and west Africa. Our focus is to ensure children have access to an inclusive education and a safe space with trusted adults to rely on.

We do this by working with local partners, parents and communities to change stigma surrounding disability and provide teacher training to ensure every child is taught in the way they can best learn.

Patricia from the Parent Support Group in Rwanda:

“I wish we keep working with Chance for Childhood. The comfort they give, the advocacy they do and the skills they provide us is needed.”
