Little Children of The World | Change Someone's Life Forever

What is LCW?

LCW is an international and interdominational Christian agency dedicated to helping develop caring communities for children at risk. Established in 1987, it seeks to address the plight of street children and those who are victims of extreme poverty in developing countries.
Little Children of the Phillipines (LCP), a subsidiary of LCW, was established in 1989 in Dumaguete City on the island of Negros. LCP has grown significantly in the number of people serviced and the comprehensive nature of its programs. As of July, 2002 another LCW project was launched in the Phillipines, in Ingan on the island of Leyte, and administered by a Filipino-American living in Vancouver, Washington.
