World of Children

World of Children is a renowned nonprofit organization based in Houston, TX, that has been making a significant impact on the lives of vulnerable children worldwide for the past 25 years. With a mission to unlock the future for these children, World of Children funds, elevates, and creates a community for the most effective changemakers globally. Through their rigorous vetting process, they have awarded over $15 million to 130 organizations in 70 countries, addressing critical issues such as health, education, safety, and human rights.

Founded by Harry Leibowitz and Kay Isaacson-Leibowitz in 1996, World of Children was born out of the realization that there were no prestigious awards recognizing those who tirelessly serve children in need. Their work has been widely recognized and praised, with their system for identifying and supporting high-quality organizations being hailed as the gold standard by entities like UNICEF-USA, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and CNN. World of Children is dedicated to ensuring that every dollar donated goes directly to children in need, as all administrative expenses are underwritten by their generous Board of Governors.
