Way back in the 1990s, Garry Fordge, a young airline purser, was driven by the extraordinary dream to see a day when no American child would be deprived of rights as basic as survival, participation, protection and development.
According to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Children – that U.S.A ratified in 1992 – all children are born with fundamental rights. Right to Survival – to life, health, nutrition, name, nationality.
As an Advocate for Child Rights you can help amplify the voices of children. Millions of American’s children are still denied the simple joys of childhood, love and protection.
