Plan International was founded over 75 years ago with a\u00a0mission to promote and protect the rights of children.<\/p>\n
The organisation was set up by British journalist John Langdon-Davies and refugee worker Eric Muggeridge in 1937, with the original aim\u00a0to provide food, accommodation and education to children whose lives had been disrupted by the Spanish Civil War.<\/p>\n

Today, Plan International is a global organisation that works in 52 developing countries to promote child rights and lift millions of children out of poverty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
