"Our strategy allows children to get healthy, to get smart and to change their world. These views were the distinguishing features of CCF and will be at the core of our work as ChildFund International," Goddard said.
In addition to the new name, ChildFund launched a new Web site today - www.ChildFund.org. The new and improved, user-friendly site allows donors to share stories, experiences, photos and connect with others.
The homepage will be the central place for users to watch videos, read inspiring stories and become more acquainted with the ChildFund approach to serving deprived, excluded and vulnerable children.
The Web site also allows users to virtually visit ChildFund's program areas using the "Place" and "Explore" sections.
A new "Children" section presents information about the lives of children supported through donations. This section will show children through each life stage, showing how ChildFund helps people transition from infant to child to youth leaders.
"We believe children have the capacity to improve their own lives and to be leaders of the next generation," Goddard said. "The most sustainable change comes from within a community. As we change a childhood, we change the world."
