A note on the photographs

We photograph our work so that supporters can see exactly where their giving lands. We do it carefully: images of children are published only with a parent or guardian’s consent, nobody is photographed in distress, and any family may ask us to remove a picture at any time — and we will, without discussion.

Be in the next one

Every photograph here began with somebody deciding to help

Join a distribution day, sponsor a child's term, or send food. The next set of photographs is not taken yet.
