About us
Save the Children is the leading independent organization creating lasting change in the lives of children in need in the United States and around the world. Recognized for our commitment to accountability, innovation and collaboration, our work takes us into the heart of communities, where we help children and families help themselves. We work with other organizations, governments, non-profits and a variety of local partners while maintaining our own independence without political agenda or religious orientation. When disaster strikes around the world, Save the Children is there to save lives with food, medical care and education and remains to help communities rebuild through long-term recovery programs. As quickly and as effectively as Save the Children responds to tsunamis and civil conflict, it works to resolve the ongoing struggles children face every day — poverty, hunger, illiteracy and disease — and replaces them with hope for the future.

🌟 For over four years, the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation has been a vital supporter of Save the Children's innovative efforts, providing learning materials and nutritious food to children in rural communities across America. 🚍 Thanks to the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation, we launched a fleet of nine buses, overcoming barriers like transportation challenges, rising fuel costs, and conflicting work schedules. Together, we brought essential resources and educational programs directly to children like Camila! 📚 The fleet reaches families in seven states, including some of rural America’s most isolated enclaves. In San Juan County, New Mexico, the Big Bird mobile nutrition and education vehicle promotes wellness and bridges early education gaps, preparing children for kindergarten success!
