Childlife Network International

ChildLife Network International is a child advocacy, relief and development organization dedicated to improving children's living conditions in Africa. Our programs are primarily for children who have been victimized by HIV/Aids, wars, extreme poverty, child abuse and family violence.

Through school programs, workshops and public awareness campaigns CNI provides tools for the children that build self esteem, improve heath and wellness, instill hope, empower them to positive personal decisions and actions. These programs will also raise awareness in their parents, educators and the general communities.
