Street Child is a UK-based international non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to ensuring that children in some of the world's most fragile and low-income communities have access to education. The organization works with local partners to establish schools, train teachers, and provide educational support, operating in over 20 countries across Africa and Asia. Their work focuses on creating sustainable, community-led education projects that address the root causes of educational exclusion.
While Street Child's global headquarters are in London, UK, the organization has a growing presence in Spain, primarily through fundraising and communication roles. For international professionals, particularly those with backgrounds in fundraising, communications, or non-profit management, Street Child offers the opportunity to apply their skills in a mission-driven environment. The Spanish roles, such as the fundraising and communication internships, are designed to support the organization's growth in the Spanish-speaking market and provide a meaningful entry point for international talent looking to contribute to a global cause.
Company History
Street Child was founded in 2008 by Tom Dannatt, who was inspired to help street children in Sierra Leone after a visit there. The organization has since grown from a small volunteer-led initiative into a global network operating in over 20 countries, focusing on education and child protection. It has established itself as a recognized charity in the UK and has expanded its reach through partnerships and fundraising efforts across Europe.
