About us
Save the Children is the leading independent organization creating lasting change in the lives of children in need in the United States and around the world. Recognized for our commitment to accountability, innovation and collaboration, our work takes us into the heart of communities, where we help children and families help themselves. We work with other organizations, governments, non-profits and a variety of local partners while maintaining our own independence without political agenda or religious orientation. When disaster strikes around the world, Save the Children is there to save lives with food, medical care and education and remains to help communities rebuild through long-term recovery programs. As quickly and as effectively as Save the Children responds to tsunamis and civil conflict, it works to resolve the ongoing struggles children face every day — poverty, hunger, illiteracy and disease — and replaces them with hope for the future.

Our Save the Children US Programs extended senior management team descended upon Lexington, KY this week for a 3-year strategy retreat. ✅We developed plans to align our programmatic, operational and relational assets with local communities’ plans, so all children in #rural America have a healthy, strong foundation to thrive as learners and in life. ✅We considered our organizational culture including ways to deepen transparency, trust and collaboration - among our teams and local partners. ✅We went bowling, played with LEGOs, ate more dessert than warranted and generally enjoyed each other’s company. Leaving with optimism and commitment to our shared mission!

Every child deserves access to education and resources that inspire creativity and growth. That's why Save the Children and Highlights for Children are teaming up to #MakeSummerFair for kids in rural America! Together, we’re bridging the gap by providing books, magazines, and games that keep young minds active over the summer. With over $1M worth of reading materials donated, children in more than 200 rural communities are empowered to reach their full potential.
