Every child deserves that first day feeling

Support a child’s education from just £1 a week!

Remember the thrill of your first day at school? The excitement of pulling on fresh socks, the smell of new pencils being sharpened to perfection, and the anticipation of meeting friends who would be part of your life for decades to come? That feeling—the blend of nervous energy, excitement, and possibilities—is something every child deserves.

Our aim is clear: to ensure that every child has the chance to go to school and experience that first day feeling. It’s not just about getting children into the classroom, it’s about ensuring they are learning, and giving them the tools to build their own futures.

For as little as £4 a month you can support a child’s education for a whole year. If you set up your regular gift before the end of September, we’ll commit to getting a child into school this term, so you know your money is making an immediate difference.

Join The Big School Walk

As part of our Back to School campaign, we invite families and schools to set a walking challenge this September and help more children access education with each step! Street Child works in remote and rural areas, where children walk long distances to reach school. On average, they cover 5K to 10K daily, facing challenges and potential dangers along the way. Your walk would mirror their journey while helping us enhance access to education by building schools closer to communities. Register your interest today to receive custom fundraising resources from our team.

Send children like Isatu back to school

As a single mother, there were many challenges that prevented Isatu from receiving the education she deserved. When Isatu met Street Child, she told them that if she was given support, she would love to go back to school and continue learning. Street Child provided Isatu with books, bags, school uniforms and supported her so she could re-enroll into school. Now every morning, Isatu wakes up and goes to school while her mother looks after her son.

You can help more children like Isatu receive a life changing education. Donate today!
