FOUNDED IN 1981

Conducted 150 Programs in 51 Countries

The International Child Resource Institute has tried to establish or improve the lives of children and their families around the world.  The International Child Resource Institute

 looks at the whole child’s; nutrition, cognitive, physical, emotional, and economic development.  This organization’s focus is making life better for children and families regardless of their income, economic or social conditions. In an attempt to further the quality of life for the families and children, the International Child Resource Institute issues loans to these areas to assist in the opening of businesses to improve the economic conditions.

What impressed me about this organization was their work with sexually abused women from the ages of 12 to twenty five. Some the women are living with HIV.  Most of all I was impressed with the fact that this organization only enters a country by invitation from either the government of the country or grass root organization of the country.  Their   purpose is to improve the lives of children and families.
