Our Work

Arms Around the Child exists so innocent children who are subjected to confusing and painful experiences can be supported to live safely with respect, hope and love.

Arms Around the Child is a direct care organisation and advocates for the rights of children who live in extreme adversity. We currently operate in India, South Africa and Ghana.

Arms Around the Child provides safe loving homes and supports orphaned children, vulnerable children and those in risk of exploitation. We protect children who have been affected and infected by HIV/AIDS, rescued from trafficking, abused – often sexually and living in child headed households.
