Challenge

It is an unfortunate truth that life chances are all-too-often proportional to family income: the poorer a child's background, the worse their prospects. We transform the lives of children and young people from poorer backgrounds who would otherwise be denied a fair chance in life.

Solution

We address these children's needs by providing programmes embracing education and health, improvements to living conditions, school and college sponsorships and a range of other activities designed to advance their well-being and personal development. In doing so, we provide a firm foundation on which these children can build a good future for themselves and their families.

Long-Term Impact

Trustees' biggest motivation for supporting children and young people in 2025 is that the young people will have an increased ability to thrive in a competitive world, due to the generosity of DCT's small but committed supporters.
