Among the most rewarding aspects of being in leadership at Children International are opportunities to visit the field. Our Executive Leadership Team held a retreat in Honduras this week that included meaningful collaboration with our CI Honduras staff. Co-creating growth and development opportunities for the children, youth, and young adults we serve is central to our efforts to end generational poverty. #ChildrenInternational #EndPoverty #MultiplyGood #PartneringForGood Susana Eshleman William Brewster Douglas Bassett Laura Thornton Tim Bachta Christopher Hoyt

We aim to create a world without poverty where every child, family and community is connected, productive and thriving.
About us
Children International is a top-rated humanitarian organization focused on ending poverty by providing high-impact programs to children and young adults. We work in 10 countries: Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Mexico, the Philippines, the U.S.A. and Zambia. About half of those living in poverty are children, and we believe ending poverty starts with them. Without help, children in poverty become adults in poverty. Their future children are born into poverty, and the cycle continues. Together, we can put an end to generational poverty with a long-term, customized program that helps children get the education, life skills and confidence to change their lives – and the lives of future generations too. Our unique, global approach focuses on four key areas: Health, Education, Empowerment, and Employment. Want to be a part of this movement? Learn more at our website: children.org

It brings Jonathan immense joy to serve each day as an Emotional Wellness Officer in Honduras. From emotional regulation activities to self-care courses, his goal is to help children and youth grow mentally strong and confident. "They are learning in the program how to behave, that they have their emotions and how to express them... We are seeing the change, the impact that we, the officers, are making with those children in the community. It's something that fills us with joy." - Jonathan #WorldMentalHealthDay

Children International is honored to participate in the annual Central America Donors Forum hosted by the Seattle International Foundation in Guatemala this week. CI leader Christina Venessa Becherer organized a gender equity panel discussion taking place today that will be moderated by CI leader Dalia Rivera Pineda and feature participation from CI leader Paola Higueros, CI Into Employment participant Sheyli, and two CI employment partners. We’re excited to foster conversation and insight about how supporting women and girls in Guatemala with educational opportunities and job training can give them hope and a pathway to brighter futures. #CADF2024 #ChildrenInternational #partnerships #workforcedevelopment #globalprograms #genderequity
