Chance for Childhood - Trail Runners Connection

Chance for Childhood

Across Africa, millions of children face systemic barriers to learning, health, and opportunity. Girls, children with disabilities, and children living in conflict or on the streets face the steepest challenges.

But we know change is possible.
Together with partners, supporters, children and their communities, we protect, educate and create lasting change for every child threatened by violence, neglect and conflict. Our mission is to fight for children across Africa to lead independent lives through urgent action in education, health and economic resilience.

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.
