Today in our Giving 101 series, we’re sharing how your workplace can become part of your giving plan. Many employers make it easy to support causes you care about through recurring payroll giving, turning a small gift from each paycheck into dependable, lasting support throughout the year. And if your employer offers a matching gift, your generosity could go even further – doubling or even tripling your impact. Check your workplace giving portal or ask your HR team what options are available. However you choose to give, your workplace may offer an easy way to make your support for organizations like Children International go even further. https://bit.ly/4yxpysA #PlannedGiving101 #PlannedGiving #ChildrenInternational #JoinTheJourney #ThoughtfulThursday

Starting from childhood, we empower youth to forge a path out of poverty and into economic independence.
About us
Children International is a top-rated global nonprofit that delivers child and youth development programming to break the cycle of generational poverty. Through a customized approach, we serve young people in Colombia, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, Honduras, India, Guatemala, Mexico, the Philippines, Zambia and the United States for the first two decades of their lives. We provide access to health care resources, educational support, positive role models, and the life skills, and job training they need to become gainfully employed. When equipped to improve their own lives, young people also transform their families and communities, and, as a result, multiply good in the world. Together, we can partner with children, youth and their families to change their lives – and shape the positive trajectory of future generations and communities. Want to be a part of this movement? Learn more at children.org. About half of those living in poverty are children, and we believe ending poverty starts with them. Without help, children in poverty become adults in poverty. Their future children are born into poverty, and the cycle continues. Together, we can put an end to generational poverty with a long-term, customized program that helps children get the education, life skills and confidence to change their lives – and the lives of future generations too. Our unique, global approach focuses on four key areas: Health, Education, Empowerment, and Employment. Want to be a part of this movement? Learn more at our website: children.org

A path toward possibility begins long before a child starts thinking about a career. It begins with a safe, welcoming place to learn. A caring adult who encourages every question. A fun, hands-on activity that turns curiosity into confidence and helps a child feel excited and ready for school. #ChildrenInternational #EndPoverty #PathofOpportunity #JoinTheJourney

Our CEO & President Susana Eshleman believes our new program model is a powerful path forward for the youth and families we're serving in 10 countries. Our global staff share her sentiments!
This week, Children International reached an important milestone – the official launch of Path of Opportunity™, our evolving program model that we’ve been piloting around the globe for the past two years. Grounded in research and designed around the way young people ages 2 to 24 learn and grow, Path of Opportunity walks alongside children and youth from poverty to possibility. This path empowers them to turn potential into opportunity, find sustainable employment and become the changemakers in their local communities. I invite you to discover what this looks like in action. Watch the latest episode of our Multiplying Good podcast to hear firsthand from our Children International team members leading this charge and already seeing the impact. And to everyone who has helped make this evolution possible through your ongoing support and partnership: Thank You. Together, we’re creating more possibilities for children and youth to build brighter futures.

This week in New York for the 81st United Nations General Assembly, Children International President & CEO Susana Eshleman and Strategic Partnerships team members Christina Becherer and Alexandra Geneser are connecting with partners, leaders and changemakers from around the world to advance opportunities for children and young people. At United Nations Headquarters, our team joined a high-level convening bringing together heads of state and government, global health leaders, financing partners and civil society organizations to discuss sustaining progress for children, adolescents and women amid a challenging global funding environment. “What I value most about this week is the opportunity to bring together people who care deeply about children and young people and to explore what we can accomplish together,” Susana says. “The conversations happening this week are a reminder that lasting progress depends on strong partnerships and a shared commitment to creating opportunities for the next generation.” It’s a chance to connect, collaborate and keep moving our mission forward: ending poverty for good. #UNGA81 #ChildrenInternational #GlobalPartnerships #MultiplyGood

Think supporting one child only changes one life? Think again. When young people have the tools to pursue employment and build a better future, they can bring those skills and experiences back to their families and communities, helping create new possibilities for others. The goal isn’t just to help one child move forward. It’s to help create a future where they can open doors for others, too. That’s what it means to join the journey.
