The Global Learning Crisis: A Local Call to Action

Children Beyond Borders recognizes the profound educational challenges facing millions of children worldwide, with a special focus on bringing hope to communities from Brentwood to Venice Beach. Over 600 million children struggle to achieve basic reading and mathematics proficiency, a crisis that demands immediate attention and local engagement. Our Southern California community can make a significant difference by understanding and addressing these critical educational inequities.

The learning challenges extend far beyond statistics. Two-thirds of children facing educational barriers are actually enrolled in schools, highlighting the complex nature of learning obstacles. Poverty, conflict, and disability create substantial roadblocks that prevent children from reaching their full potential. By supporting Children Beyond Borders, residents of West LA, Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica can directly impact global educational transformation.

Education as a Fundamental Human Right

Every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their geographic or economic circumstances. Our mission focuses on breaking down barriers that prevent children from learning and thriving. In 2024, nearly a quarter of a billion children experienced significant disruptions to their schooling due to climate crises, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable educational support. Children Beyond Borders works strategically across 147 countries to create meaningful learning opportunities. We believe education is not just about academic achievement but about empowering future generations to participate fully in society. Our approach combines targeted interventions, community engagement, and innovative learning solutions that address the root causes of educational inequality.
