Description

Chance for Childhood is an award-winning charity working in Africa to support the most vulnerable children, often invisible from society, such as street children, disabled children, children affected by conflict and children in conflict with the law. These children are often hidden members of their communities, unable to go to school, excluded from society and living in abject poverty.
