We Generation

The Youth Team is excited to kick off the school year in style! This fall we launched a brand new online hub for change-makers called the We Generation. Formerly known as the YouthZone, this completely re-designed website hosts lots of useful tools designed specifically for youth to get involved with Free The Children. With the click of a button, you’ll be able to read inspiring youth stories, sign up for a campaign, learn about the countries where Free The Children works and equip yourself with the knowledge you need to follow your passion for social issues.

The We Generation is more than a website—it’s a space where young people can find the information, inspiration and support they need to change the world. Whatever your interest, the We Generation is your starting place to join the movement for positive social change.

What’s changed? We have new podcasts; interactive slideshows and maps; a step-by-step donation process; tons of pictures; and, of course, a fresh new design. What hasn’t changed is the fact that this website is made by youth, for youth. Stay tuned for new additions to the site throughout the year, and be sure to send us your feedback! Contact us at youth@freethechildren.com to share your thoughts about the re-design or the actions you’re planning to take this year.



Free The Children is the largest network of children helping children through education in the world, with more than one million youth involved in our innovative education and development programs in 45 countries. Founded by international child rights activist Craig Kielburger, Free The Children has an established track-record of success, with three nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize and partnerships with the United Nations and Oprah’s Angel Network.
