The Rosie May Foundation is an international charity with a strategy to help children in crisis, especially girls. Our work at grassroots level is a practical hands on approach which allows children to have a voice and importantly, a choice, in their own future. The Rosie May Foundation is a little charity with a big vision which aims to: Re-unite and reintegrate children by strengthening families to become self-sustainable and prevent abandonment of babies and children. Maintain truly innovative and meaningful projects for children and young adults in crisis that are fundamentally sustainable and ethical, by developing effective community relations to understand the need for such projects. Focus on gender equality by empowering girls and young women in under privileged circumstances, to break the cycle of poverty and unlock potential through a quality education, in consonance with human rights and human dignity, for a brighter and more equitable future.
