Why is Little Children of the World Special?

Who are we?

Little Children of the World (LCW) is a Christian ministry dedicated to helping street children and children at risk in the Philippines through sponsorship, scholarships, and programs addressing urgent needs. These children are victims of extreme poverty and/or neglect, as well as vulnerable to abuse. LCW brings help and hope to more than 700 children through sponsorship and ministers to over 6000 people. LCW is the USA-based parent organization of Little Children of the Philippines in Dumaguete City, Philippines.

Our Vision

Little Children of the World is a Christian ministry lending a helping hand to those in need. Our holistic strategy for ending the cycle of poverty is best described by the acronym HELPS:
H – Health and HousingE – EducationL – LivelihoodP – Peace and Faith, and S – Child Sponsorship.

Our Mission

Our mission is to help develop caring Christian communities for the world’s children at risk so they will be able to escape poverty and abuse. We share love by letting poverty-stricken children know that someone cares about them, give help through financial partnership and child sponsorship, and bring hope to those who have none through sharing Jesus.
