Our Mission

The Love Kids Foundation is passionately committed to enhancing the lives of marginalised, disadvantaged, disabled, and underprivileged children across Asia. Through cutting-edge research and innovative, evidence-based initiatives, we strive to ensure equal access to education, healthcare, and safety. Concurrently, we advocate for inclusive legislation and the adoption of global best practices. Our unwavering goal is to empower and enable all children to realise their full potential, thereby breaking the vicious cycle of poverty and exclusion. This research-driven impact, combined with sustained community support, is the driving force behind our mission.

Objectives

Conduct in-depth interdisciplinary research on child welfare: Undertake extensive investigations across diverse domains — such as education, health, disability, and socioeconomic conditions — to identify critical needs, gaps, and trends impacting marginalised and vulnerable children in Asia. 

Create and Implement Evidence-Based Programmes: Leverage research findings to develop innovative, tailored programmes that directly address the unique needs of disabled, disadvantaged, and marginalised children, while ensuring ongoing evaluation and enhancement of service delivery. 

Communicate Research Findings to Drive Change: Disseminate research findings through readily available formats and platforms, including peer-reviewed journals, reports, and community briefings, to persuade policymakers, NGOs, and other stakeholders on best practices and essential reforms.

Cultivate Knowledge Sharing and Capacity Enhancement: Organise workshops, conferences, and training sessions for educators, healthcare and social care professionals to disseminate the latest research findings and enhance their ability to effectively serve vulnerable children.

Develop Culturally and religiously Responsive Health Interventions: Design physical and mental health programmes grounded in research that address the cultural, religious, social, and psychological challenges faced by marginalised children, with a focus on trauma, disability, and well-being.

Establish a Research Centre for Child-Centred Innovation: Set up a dedicated research hub that collaborates with universities, non-governmental organisations, and governments to pioneer innovative studies and solutions aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable children across Asia.

Build Long-Term Community Support Networks: Leverage study findings to create and strengthen community-based support systems that equip families and caregivers with the knowledge, tools, and resources to better care for children with special needs.

Advocate for Inclusive Policy Development: Partner with governments and international organisations to transform research findings into effective policies that enhance the rights and well-being of Asia’s disabled, impoverished, and marginalised children.

Conduct Action Research for Service Improvement: Use action research approaches to regularly analyse and develop the organisation’s services, ensuring they are successful, relevant, and responsive to the changing needs of children.

Raise Global Awareness and Mobilise Resources: Use research evidence to lead global awareness campaigns, influence and encourage international donors, governments, and civil society to mobilise resources for underprivileged children.

Encourage Technological Innovation for Children with Disabilities: Develop and implement assistive technology and digital solutions that improve disabled children’s learning, movement, and communication, resulting in greater independence and inclusion.

Combat Child Labour and Trafficking: Conduct targeted research to identify the fundamental causes of child labour and trafficking in vulnerable groups, then build data-driven preventative programs and advocacy initiatives to safeguard children.

Promote Lifelong Learning and Vocational Training: Create vocational training and life skills programs based on research to assist older children and teens in transitioning to adulthood, breaking the cycle of poverty and enabling self-sufficiency.

Monitor and Evaluate Impact: Establish a robust system to monitor and evaluate all programmes and services, ensuring that research informs practice and that outcomes are measurable, transparent, and aligned with the organisation’s objectives.

Encourage Cross-Sector Partnerships: Collaborate with governments, international organisations, academic institutions, and the commercial sector to co-develop and scale evidence-based interventions that support disadvantaged children.

Enhance Early Childhood Development Initiatives: Create early childhood interventions grounded in research into key developmental stages, guaranteeing that underprivileged children can access nutrition, healthcare, and early education.

Empower Children’s Participation in Research: Ensure that children’s voices are heard in research, allowing them to actively engage in studies that impact their lives, empowering them and providing insights to develop relevant programmes.

Establish a Knowledge Hub for Marginalised Children: Develop and maintain a global repository of research, case studies, and best practices relevant to the well-being of marginalised, vulnerable, and disabled children, serving as a resource for practitioners and policymakers.
