Lumos

Lumos We're on a mission to see every child have a safe and loving family ♥️. Founded by J.K Rowling in 2005.

An est. 5.4 million children worldwide are living in residential institutions or orphanages, separated from family life because they are poor, disabled or from an ethnic minority. This is a serious problem, on a massive scale, but there is a solution. Lumos works in partnership with governments, professionals, carers, communities, families and children to transform outdated systems that force families apart. Together with our partners, we replace institutions and orphanages with community-based services that give children access to health, education and social care, tailored to their individual needs. We support families to ensure that these 8 million children are able to return to the love and care of a family. Lumos Foundation USA registration details:

Last year, we set out a bold ambition: to reach millions more children, in more countries, more quickly over the next decade, helping to make growing up in a safe and loving family a reality for every child.

To help achieve that ambition, we've evolved how we work, developing a new partnership model that will enable us to create greater impact alongside governments, partners and communities around the world.

As our work has evolved, we've also taken the opportunity to refresh our brand so it better reflects who we are today and the future we're working towards.

Over the coming weeks, you'll start to see some changes in how Lumos looks and communicates. But while our brand is evolving, the reason you support us remains exactly the same.

Our mission, values and commitment to children have not changed. Together, we're working towards a future where every child can grow up in a safe and loving family.

Thank you for being part of that journey.
