As families gather this holiday to celebrate freedom and watch the sky light up with fireworks, we’re reminded that far too many children won’t be there to celebrate, because...
They’re missing. They’re being sexually exploited. They need help — and hope.
At the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), we believe every child deserves the freedom to grow up safe. But right now, too many are waiting — to be found, to be rescued, to be reunited with the people who love them. Thanks to supporters like you, we’re making progress. Every day, NCMEC works to protect children, and the results are nothing short of extraordinary:
29,000+ cases solved in 2024
36 million CyberTipline reports processed
1,000+ law enforcement agencies supported nationwide
But there is still so much more to do. This holiday, your support can bring more children home — and make sure every child gets to experience the joy, safety, and freedom we celebrate today. Donate now or learn how you can help turn fear into freedom.
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children is a private, non-profit 501(c)(3) accredited by several organizations across the United States. Over 92 cents of every dollar raised goes towards NCMEC's programs and services. When you give to NCMEC, you can rest assured that your donation goes towards helping give children the safe childhood they deserve.
