Children carry heavy bags for work in Kabul. In Afghanistan, more than 50 per cent of the population of 24 million people is under the age of 18. UNICEF estimates that up to 30 per cent of primary school age children are working and are often the sole source of income for their families.

Pocket change transformed into lifelong change

This movement of ForgetMeNot International is based on the simple concept that will transform the lives of the orphans. Inspired by the profound impact small actions generate, we believe that pocket change has the power to become lifelong change. This simple act of giving is a large contribution to the empowerment of those who are most vulnerable and whose basic needs remain unmet.


Children locally helping children globally

This movement is centred around the belief of children locally helping children globally. ¢hange4children seeks to educate, engage, and empower both the child receiving the as well as the child giving to learn from and about each other.
