Welcome to the home page of Chance 4 Children, or for short – C4C! Thanks for stopping by!
If you love children, then we have something in common already. We here at Chance 4 Children (C4C) believe that children are the hope of the future. Each one is precious and distinct, just waiting for his or her chance to fulfill their destiny and calling in life. In keeping with this, our Motto is that:
Every child deserves a chance!
That applies especially to children who are disabled or socially disadvantaged, institutionalized or terminally ill – children at risk and less fortunate than others! Since 1996 the Chance 4 Children team has invested much time and resources into developing and implementing innovative programs, such as our popular “Robin Hood”, “Springboard to Life” and “Dr. Clown” programs - all aimed at making the playing field a little more level for children with one of the above mentioned handicaps. C4C’s initiatives have won distinguished awards and have succeeded in decisively improving the quality of life of thousands of needy, disabled and disadvantaged children, helping them to live up to their full potential.
Incorporated under Czech law as a non-profit, humanitarian civic association, C4C provided in the past year alone over 50 million CZK (3 million US $) in aid and services to more than 120 homes and institutions with resident children in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Says Karel Heller of Ceska Lipa, Vice-president of the Association of Czech Orphanages, of C4C's programs: "The Chance for Children team never seems to run out of new and innovative ideas to help enhance the quality of life of our children. C4C’s humanitarian and educational programs have certainly made a big difference in this country."
On behalf of the children receiving assistance through our programs, we'd like to express our heartfelt thanks to our partners, sponsors and all of you who helped to make our work possible! Your contributions, sacrifices, and your unselfish giving is very much appreciated. THANK YOU!

NOTICE!
We've opted to keep this site bilingual, English and Czech, which has resulted in a fair amount of translation work. We decided to make English the default language, because of its international character and universal appeal. If you happen to come across a link that hasn't been translated yet into Czech, the text will therefore appear in English. We are constantly updating and adding to this site and will hopefully soon catch up. Thank you for your understanding.
