Children Believe (CB), formally Christian Children Fund of Canada is an International Non-governmental Organization incorporated in Ghana. CB works globally to empower children to dream fearlessly, stand up for what they believe in- and be heard. For 24 years, we have brought together brave dreamers, caring supporters and partners and unabashed Idealists in Ghana. Together, we are driven by a common belief: creating access to education-inside and outside of the classrooms-is the most powerful tool children can use to change their world. This belief we pursue by supporting thriving communities, advancing child rights and protection, promoting equality for girls and women, partnering with children and youth for change.
