SOS Children's Villages, founded in 1949, is the world's largest non-governmental organization focused on supporting children and young people without parental care, or at risk of losing it.
Locally led, we work in more than 130 countries and territories to strengthen families who are under pressure so they can stay together. When this is not in the best interest of a child or young person, we work with a range of care options, including foster care and family-like care according to the unique needs of the child or young person.
Together with partners, donors, communities, children, young people, and families, we enable children to grow up with the bonds they need to develop and become their strongest selves. We speak up for children's rights and advocate for change so all children can grow up in a supportive environment.
