Child Abuse Act. Today more than 900 CASA programs are in operation, with

Children of the Night

Summary: Children of the Night is a privately funded non-profit organization established in 1979. We are dedicated to assisting children between the ages of 11-17 who are sexually abused and are forced to prostitute on the streets for food to eat and a place to sleep. Since 1979 we have rescued over 10,000 boys and girls from prostitution and pornography. Over 80% of these children have stayed off the street and are not dependent on criminal activity. Children of the Night’s goal is to mainstream street children into the larger society. Each child has a life plan, whether its foster placement, independent living, returning home or placement in a dorm of a four year college. We teach our children how to set and obtain their goals. Each child is offered long term support through our alumni program. And we do all of this with money from the private sector.

Summary: "Coptic Orphans is a non-profit Christian organization that aids poverty-stricken children in Egypt.

Today, Coptic Orphans is helping over 3000 children in Cairo, Alexandria, Benisuef, Minya, Assuit and many other locations. Our dedicated representatives in Egypt seek out children who have lost one or both parents and are without means of support. Many times, these children are neither receiving the minimally adequate nourishment, nor the educational support to stay in school. Through food distribution and school assistance, Coptic Orphans ensures that these children will have an opportunity to improve their lives. Coptic Orphans was conceived in May 1988 when Nermien Riad, now the Executive Director, was in Cairo during a two-year tour of duty with the U.S. government. Coptic Orphans has since grown phenomenally and still does."

treat about 90% of the children with cancer in North America. Their

children with cancer. Over 70% of the children with cancer can now be cured
of what used to be an always-incurable disease. However, cancer still kills
more children than any other disease, so that research momentum must
continue until every child can be cured.
