ChildFund International Charity Reviews and Ratings
Reviews of ChildFund International, which ChildFund Zambia is a part of, recognize us for stewardship and financial accountability. ChildFund International is recognized for its legitimacy with high charity ratings from Charity Navigator, the Charities Review Council, the American Institute of Philanthropy and the Better Business Bureau.
Most importantly, these positive charity reviews affirm our legitimacy. ChildFund is a good charity because our work and our funding are designed to be sustainable. The combination of sponsorship and other types of funding allows us to remain in communities long term, guiding and supporting them as they transform themselves into places where children’s best interests are central.
As one of the oldest child sponsorship organizations in the world, having served children since the 1980s in Zambia, we are able to draw on our longstanding credibility to open more doors for children. In 2024, we helped 800,000 children and their families in 10 districts access healthcare, nutrition, education, livelihoods and protection. We also strengthened local organizations to ensure they can continue supporting these services in their communities even after our involvement.
We strive to be transparent, trustworthy and above reproach in every aspect of our finances. ChildFund’s legitimacy is recognized by top charity reviewers:
