The Children’s Fund is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to helping early-stage charities fulfill their mission to provide c ... ritical services to disadvantaged children across the greater-Houston area. Since 1972, The Children's Fund has given wings to charities that support Houston's most needy children. We are a volunteer organization with no overhead and no paid staff. When you donate, 100% of each dollar is converted into a saved life, a cured body, a full tummy, a brighter future and a healed heart. The Children’s Fund builds on Houston’s rich tradition of philanthropy by educating and encouraging its members and supporters to give in a way that significantly improves the quality of life for disadvantaged children. The Children’s Fund charities are selected through a rigorous review process from over 120 annual requests. read more
