Back her to back herself
By sponsoring a girl and her community you create lasting change for generations.
The world is failing girls. We won't.
Who are we?
We are Plan International UK, a global children’s charity advancing equality for girls and a just world for all. We stand fiercely beside girls as they demand the futures they deserve.
What do we do?
We rally people together to dismantle what holds girls back – through programmes, responding to emergencies, influencing decision makers and campaigning for change.
Where do we work?
Girls face inequality everywhere, but its impact is greatest where poverty, crisis and discrimination collide. That’s why we work in over 80 countries globally.
Double your impact for girls
The world tells us girls are born equal. Then it quietly hands them a contract they never asked for. A sprawling list of unfair Terms and Conditions limiting girls' rights and opportunities.
Much has changed for girls. But equality is unfinished business. This October, we're changing the conditions girls are born into. You can too.
Donate between 6 and 13 October through the Big Give Women and Girls Match Fund, and your donation to our work with girls around the world will be doubled.
Let's change the conditions for girls, twice over.

Tackling online harm
Within minutes, algorithms push girls and boys into strikingly different online worlds. Built on misogyny. With real-world consequences.
But the conditions children face online aren't inevitable. They're choices made by social media platforms, enabled by governments more focused on punishing children for Big Tech's failures than holding platforms to account.
It's time to change this. Dive deeper into how algorithms are shaping children's online experiences in our report.
Ways to get involved
Leave a Gift in Your Will
Standing with Plan International UK means helping girls write their own futures. We’ve made major strides forwards, but we aren’t stopping - especially when some of this progress is being undone.
Your support can protect those hard‑won gains. By leaving a gift in your will, you can help keep girls in school, build safer communities, and open doors to lifelong opportunities.
Be part of the change that empowers girls to lead, thrive, and transform their communities for generations. Find out more about leaving a gift in your will.
Make a Donation
Girls are stepping into classrooms, careers and opportunities previous generations could only dream of. But blink, and those gains could be gone.
Around the world, girls’ hard-won freedoms are being questioned – even rolled back. Not on our watch. Plan International was built for this moment, standing beside girls to insist on better. Care to join us?
Whether you choose to give regularly or a single gift, your donation strengthens a global movement that refuses to turn back. Because the plan is still on, until we are all equal.
