Save the Children Action Network (SCAN) Is the Leading Political Voice for Kids

YOUR VOICE CAN CHANGE CHILDREN’S FUTURES 

SCAN wouldn’t exist without advocates. In 2023, you helped us send 1 million+ messages to lawmakers, organize events across the nation and host 272 lobby meetings. Together, we celebrated big wins for kids — like electing champions for children and securing millions of dollars in early learning and child nutrition investments.

Join a Community of Changemakers, VOLUNTEER with SCAN

There are endless ways to channel your passion for helping kids: write letters to the editor, participate in local events, fundraise or even meet with your member of Congress. Don’t worry — we’ll provide the tools and training you need to be a powerful champion for children.
