Toybox

Toybox is a UK charity with a mission to end the injustice of children living and working on the streets. Street children are one of the world鈥檚 most vulnerable groups. We currently work across Latin America, India and Kenya to help to prevent children from taking the final step to street living, to rescue them when they do and to help them to restore their lives and build a new future for themselves away from the streets.

The XXX Children

The XXX Children

In Guatemala, one of the most violent countries in the world, an estimated 700,000 children do not have birth certificates and are simply known as 鈥渢he XXX children鈥. Without this official identity street children are open to being used, neglected and abused by gangs and criminals.

Birth certificates 鈥 no child invisible

Birth certificates 鈥 no child invisible

Without a birth certificate a child can鈥檛 see a doctor when they are ill, advance at school, get a job, get married or even be buried in an official cemetery. No matter how they try, these children will always be outside of society.

A gift that lasts a lifetime

A gift that lasts a lifetime

Toybox was able to help Silvia get her birth certificate. With the help of Radio 4 listeners we aim to raise enough to secure birth certificates for over 500 more children. By supporting this Appeal you鈥檒l be giving children the opportunity of a new future away from the streets.
