                Ever since we came into existence in 2011, Hope for Kids International (our old name) has been the UK partner of the Kids Alive family, a wonderful Christian global mission with a base in the USA and several overseas partners such as Kids Alive Lebanon and Kids Alive Kenya. The family aims to follow God&#039;s calling to serve some of the world’s most vulnerable children, of all faiths and none. Strictly speaking we are an independent registered UK charity, but in reality we are the same organisation with the same values, aims and Christian focus. We are extremely proud of this - and as an opportunity has arisen to enable us to take the same name, we are delighted to be called Kids Alive International from October 1st 2021.
