Right To Play is a global organization that protects, educates, and empowers children to rise. It works with children in some of the most difficult places on earth, helping them to stay in school and graduate, to resist exploitation and overcome prejudice, to prevent disease and to heal from war and abuse.
For more than 20 years, Right to Play has delivered programs with impact in both development and humanitarian contexts. As pioneers in a unique approach to learning, both inside and outside of the classroom, the organization harnesses play, one of the most fundamental forces in a child’s life, to help children dismantle barriers and embrace opportunities. It is the only global development organization focused exclusively on using the power of play to transform children’s lives.
Right to Play reaches millions of children each year in 15 countries around the world. By collaborating with teachers, governments, communities, and parents, it helps children unlock their potential, enabling them to make positive and healthy choices and to create better futures for themselves, their families, and their societies.
