WORDS FROM THE SPOKESPERSON
Andrew Cates
Chief Executive
Chief Executive
Hello and welcome to the SOS Children's page.We are the world's largest orphan charity caring for over 60,000 children in 123 countries. Children who have been orphaned, abandoned or whose families are unable to care for them.
Children live with their SOS Mother and family in unique SOS Children's Villages.
Through schools and training centres, we work to provide children with education and skills they need to become independent and contributing members of their local community.
Community development programmes provide important medical, skills training and counselling services to help strengthen families and keep them together.
