HELP A POOR CHILD is a non-profit, voluntary organisation, providing assistance to children and families struggling in terrible poverty.
The charity was founded in 1980 by a group of young individuals visiting India, and who were presented with a challenge, by an Indian nun Mother Colombiere, of "doing something for the poor".
Today, through your generous support, we help children in different parts of Asia with plans to extend this help to Africa. And through children and family assistance programs, we're giving hope to children and adults affected by extreme poverty.
Most of the children we work with are deprived to an unimaginable degree, as there is no education, little food, endemic diseases, high levels of disability, parental rejection and working from as early as 5 years of age or begging/scavenging for their survival.
There is no help for them and no hope either, as children's affairs have no priority.
With your help, we can help these poor & needy children grow up healthy and educated.
HELP A POOR CHILD's headquarters are based in the UK with Recipient branches in India and Africa. Other fundraising branches are located in Australia, Canada and USA with other recipient branches to soon open in Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
