The Sunshine Fund for Children was founded in 1959.
Our goal is to help children in need.
This includes children who are seriously ill in this country as well as sick, homeless or
abandoned children in other countries.
examples of our action overseas
• We manage sixteen orphanages around the world for children who are homeless or
abandoned.
• We organise vaccination programmes in twenty-five countries.
• We provide free education for poor children in six countries.
• We manage two children’s hospitals in Africa.
examples of our action here in Great Britain
• Every summer we organise camps for children suffering from serious illnesses such as
cancer. These camps are free of charge.
• We also organise family weekends for the families of sick children.
• We organize day trips and picnics for children who are too ill to travel.
