About us
Children International is a top-rated global nonprofit that delivers child and youth development programming to break the cycle of generational poverty. Through a customized approach, we serve young people in Colombia, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, Honduras, India, Guatemala, Mexico, the Philippines, Zambia and the United States for the first two decades of their lives. We provide access to health care, education, positive role models, and the life and job skills they need to become gainfully employed. When equipped to improve their own lives, young people also transform their families and communities, and, as a result, multiply good in the world. Together, we can partner with children, youth and their families to change their lives – and shape the positive trajectory of future generations and communities. Want to be a part of this movement? Learn more at children.org. 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

At Children International, mission isn’t confined to the field. It lives in our systems, strategy and data.

This Black History Month, we’re proud to highlight leaders across Children International who help move our mission forward. For Ramona Williams, Product Owner in IT, joining Children International was about aligning purpose with expertise. With a background in technology and product development, she builds systems that support children and families around the world. “What keeps me motivated is knowing the platforms we build aren’t just technical solutions. They support real families and real children.” Ramona believes representation matters, especially behind the scenes where systems are built and decisions are shaped. Her advice to young Black professionals pursuing mission-driven work: Be intentional. Your skills have power, and your voice belongs in the rooms where impact is designed. #ChildrenInternational #EndPoverty #JoinTheJourney #BlackHistoryMonth
