Story

Street Child is a UK charity, established in 2008, that aims to create educational opportunities for some of the most vulnerable children in West Africa.

Starting in Sierra Leone, then the poorest country in the world, we have supported over 20,000 urban and rural children to access a quality education.

Together with our local partners, the charity has grown since 2008 from one project for 100 children in Northern Sierra Leone, to one of the most broad-reaching charities currently working in the region with 30 projects in multiple countries.

Street Child's principal focus is upon empowering children by giving them the chance to go to school and giving their families the wherewithal to keep them there.
