All children have rights that need to be protected

Premiumaid Foundation was the first global organization devoted solely to serving children’s needs, protecting them from harm and securing their rights. Today, we champion the rights of the world’s 2.3 billion children.

Premiumaid Foundation puts child protection at the center of all its work, especially in times of crisis and conflict, when children are most vulnerable. We lead the world in protecting children in conflict and war zones, identifying their needs, advocating for their safety, and giving physical and mental health support, particularly when they are displaced and alone

Every child should grow up a safe and supported, yet three quarters of children experience violence

COVID-19 exacerbated the risk of violence against children, particularly girls, poor children, children with disabilities and those in fragile contexts.

Every girl and boy deserves to grow up free from harm. Yet gender-based violence continues, effectively ending their childhoods and risking their futures. Gender-based violence occurs in every country in the world and across all economic and social groups.
