Founded in 1952, Compassion is a Christian child development charity releasing children from poverty, in Jesus’ name. Working in 29 countries, we partner with more than 8,500 local churches within communities experiencing poverty. Our heart is to give children and young people the opportunity to thrive and reach their God-given potential both now and into the future.  

We’re Christ-centred, motivated by Jesus’ call to love our neighbour. We're child-focused, helping those left most vulnerable to the effects of poverty. And we’re church-driven, running our programmes exclusively in partnership with local churches.  

Compassion’s child development programmes are holistic, giving children support in every core area of their lives. Because we work in partnership with local churches who know their communities inside out, our programmes are tailored to a child’s age, gender, health, culture and family situation. Independent research shows they are highly effective, and now more than 2.3 million children globally are being released from poverty. Learn more about what we do at: https://www.compassionuk.org
