Advocates for Children’s Rights

Dedicated to advancing charitable causes around the world, Roger Coleman is a New York investor who divides his earnings between his own family foundation, and charities chosen by him and his partners. One organization that Roger Coleman donates to is Plan International. A nonprofit with global reach, Plan International advocates for children’s issues, especially issues that affect girls.

With over 80 years of experience, Plan International strives to give every child an increased quality of life. Their members provide immediate, material assistance, and also invest in their target children’s futures. They work to end practices that exploit children, or put them in avoidable harm.

Plan International operates in over 75 countries. They open schools and offer education to girls who otherwise would not receive one, and end practices like child marriage, so the children they serve are treated with the dignity they deserve. They support children up until secondary education, granting access to job training, and even pass on their sense of advocacy to the same girls they assist, to emphasize their worth as individuals.
