about us


what we do

Trust in Children connects children to chances. We enable deprived children to access education by issuing grants to projects that most organisations overlook. Where a need is found that no other charity is attending, we instigate and manage our own projects.A child supported by Ripple Africa

our history

Trust in Children was founded in 1964 by Colin Murray as the East India Club Trust. It exclusively issued grants exclusively to needy children in the UK for 40 years. In 2004 the charity was relaunched with the same aims of helping disadvantaged children but a broader focus on projects both in the UK and in other countries.
