Children First International
Mission statement
Children First International started with a desire to provide warm clothes for children in Zimbabwe and became an initiative that is becoming more challenging.
It is still a small independent charity but the desire to help under-privileged children has grown by encouraging and facilitating the development of life-skills and self-esteem and networking to raise awareness amongst children of other cultures.
We aim to:
Provide and help sustain access to educational facilities
Enable children to thrive in their own communities
Develop and encourage the growth of training programmes for tomorrow’s generation
Seek access to alternative funding source
Build networks between children in the UK and the African continent
Develop partnership initiatives with like-minded organisations
