Wedoourbest was founded in response to realities that many of us have witnessed first-hand on the streets of cities across Asia. In these environments we encounter children and young people living in extremely difficult and often dangerous circumstances. Some survive by asking for money in order to eat. Others become involved in gangs or informal street networks. Many live and sleep on the streets, often amongst refuse, searching through waste simply to find enough food to survive. Some have been abandoned or left behind by their families. Others have chosen to live alone after experiencing violence or hardship at home. Many of the children we meet have endured experiences that no child should ever face.

It is from these encounters that Wedoourbest was born. We believe firmly that more must be done to create a better future for these children and young people. Our aim is to build a platform through which they can gain access to the most basic conditions required for a dignified life: nutritious food, clean water, clean clothing, and a safe place to sleep. Equally important is the opportunity to feel secure, to attend school, and to receive an education that can open new possibilities for their future.

We also believe that every child deserves the presence of supportive and caring adults who can guide them, listen to them, and help them rebuild trust in others. Our work seeks not only to address immediate needs but also to restore hope, confidence, and the possibility of friendship and belonging. We want children and young people to rediscover that life can offer opportunity, purpose, and dignity.

Wedoourbest is a young organisation and the work ahead is considerable. We therefore welcome the support and engagement of all those who wish to contribute to this mission. Many of the individuals involved in establishing the organisation have previously worked within leading humanitarian organisations such as the International Red Cross and Médecins Sans Frontières. Drawing upon these experiences, we aim to build a humanitarian organisation with a clear and dedicated focus on children and young people.

We believe that children and youth should receive support in a neutral, non-political, and non-religious environment. Within such a space they are free to discover their own interests, beliefs, and aspirations. Our responsibility is to provide safety, support, and opportunity so that they may shape their own future.

Wedoourbest operates according to clear rules and guidelines in order to ensure that donations and resources are used responsibly and effectively. Transparency and accountability are fundamental to maintaining the trust placed in us by donors, partners, and the communities we serve.

Working with Wedoourbest, whether as an employee or a volunteer, is not motivated by financial gain. The organisation maintains a strict position against corruption, and employees receive fair and reasonable salaries rather than excessive remuneration. This approach ensures that the largest possible share of the resources entrusted to us can be directed towards programmes that benefit the children and young people we support.

Although the work can be demanding, it is deeply meaningful. Those who join Wedoourbest become part of a shared effort to create better opportunities and safer futures for children and teenagers who would otherwise have very few chances in life.

“We dream about a world where children and teenagers can grow up in a safe and neutral environment so that they can later on freely decide what they like to do in life and what they will believe in.”
