For homeless children, every day can be a struggle.

What's the world like for homeless children?

Homeless children around the world struggle to stay alive each day. These children often face preventable diseases like pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria and AIDS. In many cases, homeless children are orphans. UNAIDS estimates that more than 15 million children have lost one or both parents to the AIDS epidemic. Millions of these children have been left homeless and abandoned.

How does Compassion offer hope to homeless children?

Compassion works to rescue orphans, homeless children and others who are among the world's most vulnerable populations. Homeless children and others in Compassion's programs receive health care, nutritional support, educational opportunities and much more. They also learn about God's love. Through our revolutionary child development strategies, homeless children and others have the opportunity to experience powerful changes in character, understanding, attitude and behavior. We not only meet everyday needs, but we also teach homeless children and other children in need about the love of Jesus Christ. Lives are being transformed!
