Hope for Children is an international charity that passionately believes every child has the right to a happy, healthy and positive childhood.

Hope for Children was founded in 1994, the International Year of the family, by an amazing man, Dr Bob Parsons OBE, who had a vision to help needy children and families in the UK and developing countries who fell through the gaps of support by the larger charities.

Almost half of the world’s children are vulnerable and living in poverty. They are changing this by making a safe and fulfilling childhood a reality for more of the world’s children.

They are improving their access to education and healthcare, empowering their families to support themselves whilst developing their confidence and self-esteem. Most importantly they are giving them hope.
