About Us

Founded in 1993 by David Gotts, International China Concern exists to help the disadvantaged live life to the full. We believe every child is precious and has the right to be loved, to have hope for the future and the opportunity to realise their dreams.
For almost 20 years International China Concern has partnered with the Chinese government to develop social welfare for China’s neediest children – the abandoned and disabled. Our reputation and relationships in China place us in an excellent position to not only provide services and homes for life, but also empower and train Chinese nationals to see lives saved, families supported, communities transformed and attitudes changed.
Our China projects are predominantly managed by Chinese nationals with support from dedicated international volunteers, both in China and abroad. Seven offices worldwide raise money and awareness, provide resources, and recruit sponsors and volunteers with a passion to serve in China.
