What is a Chapter?
Childhelp Chapters and Auxiliaries create a way for community members to join the fight against child maltreatment, make their voices heard and their actions matter. They work hard to bring awareness to the issue and raise funds that will directly benefit the lives of children.
Childhelp Chapters and Auxiliaries plan events to raise awareness, media attention and funds for the prevention and treatment of child abuse and neglect. They are governed by a set of bylaws and lead by Chapter officers who help plan and implement the group’s fundraising events and oversee the other activities of the Chapter. Chapters and Auxiliaries also support Childhelp programs in their areas whether it’s with special event planning for the children or being a mentor. Members become agents of change by taking action and encouraging others to do the same. Some Chapter and Auxiliary members have been working to stop child abuse for nearly 50 years!
Child abuse can’t be stopped by one organization. It takes a community to demand change.
