After researching I was able to find many organizations that promote social change for children and families. It was encouraging to find so many wonderful resources for children and families. I am thankful to have this new knowledge and awareness to share with the families I am working with.
The three international organizations I would like to share are The FreeChild Project, Children International and Hope for Children. The FreeChild Project advocates, informs, and celebrates social change led by and with young people around the world. Some of the issues addressed by young people include economic issues, identity issues and social issues. Actions young people are taking to create social change include cultural, school, government and community actions. I found this organization to be inspiring as it empowers young children and adults in order to make a positive social change.
Children International is a non profit organization that help children around the world overcome the burdens of poverty. In addition to sponsorship they also work to improve living conditions of children and families who live in poverty. I would love the opportunity to be a part of this organization or one like it. So many children and families are struggling with poverty and the effects of it and this organization truly makes a social change in society.
Hope for Children is a small charity that helps some of the most disadvantaged children in the world. HOPE works in 10 different countries across Africa, Asia and Europe. They provide education and health care to improve children's quality of life. They have many volunteer opportunities available such as fundraising, events, and marketing. This is another organization that would be rewarding to be a part of.
