You know where your children are. Do you know who they’re talking to online?

Knowing the signs πŸ›‘ of online exploitation can help stop it before it happens. It’s one of the best things you can do for the kids in your life this #SaferInternetDay (and every day).

Esther attends a school in #Kenya that caring people like you have supported for more than 2 decades. We built a dormitory here as a safe place for girls like her to learn free from the pressures to undergo harmful practices like #FGM & child marriage.
