War Child was founded in 1993 in response to the war in the Balkans. Our belief remains the same today as it was then—no child should have their life destroyed by war.

Children do not start wars but their families, homes, and schools—the very things they rely on for support and safety—continue to be destroyed by conflict.

Children are not only at risk of being killed or injured but as communities flee and disperse, children often find themselves alone, traumatised, unable to continue their education and with no one to turn to. 

At War Child we understand these effects of conflict, which is why we focus our energies on helping and preventing the most vulnerable children from having their lives torn apart by the cycle of conflict, giving them a lifeline and a sense of hope for the future.
