As a secular, nonpartisan organization, SOS Children’s Villages is dedicated to a single, unwavering mission: to ensure every child grows up in a safe, loving home. Regardless of political changes, we are committed to providing children with nurturing environments in which to grow, strengthening families and delivering life-saving aid in times of crisis.
During his previous administration, President Trump’s proposed cuts to international aid—totaling $4.3 billion—highlight the challenges we may face in securing critical support for children in need worldwide.
While crucial future funding for international assistance from the United States government is uncertain, the future of SOS Children’s Villages is unquestionable: we remain steadfast in our mission to protect and provide for children globally.
Knowing the relentless compassion and commitment of our fellow Americans, we remain hopeful and positive that friends like you will see the possibility of decreased governmental funding not as an insurmountable obstacle but as an opportunity.
Now, more than ever, we need the dedicated support of generous partners, so we can continue providing uninterrupted, high-quality care and services to the world’s most vulnerable children and families.
Political views and policies should never affect a child’s chance to grow up healthy, safe and loved.
Instead, let us reach out our hands with a selfless love that highlights and celebrates our shared humanity.
A vulnerable child—scared and alone this holiday season—needs you. You can be the beacon of hope they long for by donating or sponsoring a vulnerable child today. Together, we can ensure every child experiences the security and love they deserve.
Because love transcends politics.
Because love matters.
