At SOS Children we value the commitment of our supporters who give their time, energy and donations to help the children in our care. On this page are a variety of resources to help you learn more about our work and help raise awareness of SOS Children.

If you are a supporter, you might be interested in subscribing to our twice-yearly magazine or monthly eNews. If you are a teacher, you might find our lesson plans useful.  If you want to find out more about our finances, our annual reports are available.
