Children, young people, and communities driving global change
Since 1994, we have supported more than 1,000 local partners to reach more than 11 million children, and we’re working with new organizations all the time. With unique missions and culturally relevant approaches, GFC partners fiercely pursue our shared vision: securing a safe, vibrant, and equitable future for all children and young people.
GFC partners address complex challenges that young people confront. The work often spans several themes but aligns with six broad focus areas.
What has been most valuable in our partnership with GFC is how invested they have been in Arpan’s success and how they have gone the extra mile to open doors for us at every opportunity. Over the years, GFC has not just supported Arpan financially but also through programs that facilitated knowledge exchange with peers.
Pooja Taparia, Founder and CEO, Arpan, India
We are so grateful to GFC. It has changed our perspective. It has increased our impact in communities. It has also given us the technical know-how on how to coordinate networks and also how to improve services delivered to children.
Kolawole Olatosimi Adenola, Program Coordinator, Child and Youth Protection Foundation, Nigeria
Working together rather than saying this is our agenda and this if how you have to follow it. GFC is working with us together. That ‘us’ feeling is very important and that is what GFC has been able to give us.
Nikita Ketkar, Founder and CEO, Masoom, India
When GFC came, we could all express how we were feeling. And that, beyond the financial support, GFC helps us see how we’re working as a team.
Hescarleth Membreño, Program Coordinator, Tan Ux’il, Guatemala
