World Childhood Foundation

The foundation's focus is on protecting children from sexual abuse as well as helping those who have already fallen victim, with a concentration on girls and young mothers.

Childhood currently supports over 115 programs in 17 countries, including Belarus, Brazil, Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Nepal, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Sweden, Thailand, Ukraine and the United States.

Childhood has offices in São Paulo, Brazil, New York City, USA and Munich/Berlin, Germany.

So-called Major Partner companies have each signed a three-year co-operation contract with the foundation, working with Childhood on its cause-related issues.

The sister foundations in Brazil, Germany, and the United States work in similar ways with companies of different kinds to raise awareness and funds.
