About Us
Children Samaritan is a voluntary-led 501(c)3 nonprofit humanitarian organization dedicated to helping the most vulnerable children, in the most difficult communities, to overcome the cycle of poverty and reach their full potential. We fulfill our mission by working with local, national and global partners to improve children's access to quality education, healthy and safe life, and empowering their families to empower them to succeed in live
To date, Children Samaritan has donated many school supplies, shoes, and healthcare supplies to many underserved communities that we serve and we are still doing more. Our health and Sanitation programs have
empowered many communities with locally built Microflush toilet facilities.
We serve all children regardless of race, ethnicity, age, gender, religion, disability, economic status, location and other diverse backgrounds.
Our Core Mission
Working together to improving the quality of life and well-being of children.
Our Vision
For every child to reach their full potential and enjoy life.
The Problem
The effects of intergenerational poverty are most damaging to the most vulnerable children's life. Extreme poverty in their life and households does not only limits their future, it drags down their societies. Children who have grown up in poverty suffer the most compared to their piers with better background, because of lack of food, education, healthcare, and sanitation they need to thrive. Extreme poverty can trap children, but we all can work together to break the cycle.
Our offices are located in the USA and Ghana, Africa.
Our History
Ours is a grassroots story. In 1999, a group of young volunteers traveled to Africa to support some remote rural community projects . What they witnessed moved them to their core: remote rural communities without access to basic healthcare, and people needlessly dying without hope. Being moved by such situations, these youngsters established a grassroot nonprofit organization called World Partners for Development to help hard-to-reach remote communities to receive long lasting tools to overcome poverty. The name World Partners for Development was later changed to Children Samaritans to focus on working towards a brighter future for children to impact their lives and their generations.
Today, Children Samaritan and its partners work work in many underserved communities in Africa and other parts of the world. Our important work continues and will never stop —each day, we are renewed with that same vision that our founders held—that a committed and dedicated group of individuals can save lives and change the course of intergenerational poverty, one day at a time.
