Lumos

Lumos is an international organisation committed to making family care for all children a global reality by 2050. Eight million children live in orphanages and other institutions globally. More than 80% are not orphans but have been separated from their families because of poverty and discrimination. Orphanages harm children, exposing them to all f... orms of abuse and trafficking. Lumos rescues children from orphanages and reunites them with families. The company change education, health and social care systems so all children and families can access the care and protection they deserve. Because only families provide the building blocks children need to thrive and reach their full potential. Founded by J.K. Rowling and named after the spell in the Harry Potter books that brings light to the darkest of places, Lumos reveals the hidden children and works with governments, donors, communities and other partners to transform systems of care to bring them home.Read More
