We are on a mission to provide a chance in life
in a unique way ...

We Create a Town

It takes a village to make an impact. So we created towns in Italy, Ethiopia, India and Latin America.

The Kids Run it

They elect their own leaders and are responsible for shaping their own community.

They Are Empowered

Through self-government, our kids become self-confident, creative and responsible.

















​

October is Founder's Month!

Every October, we celebrate the legacy of the man who started it all - Monsignor John Patrick Carroll-Abbing. His life of service to others is an inspiration to all who strive to continue his work of providing every child around the world with a chance in life.

IT IS NOW WRITTEN IN THE STARS ...

Be Proud.

We are a four-star organization.
