Historic Roots

Eglantyne Jebb, an Oxford-educated teacher and social reformer, founded the Save the Children Fund in England in 1919. Jebb was arrested in April of that year in Trafalgar Square for handing out leaflets featuring photographs of starving Austrian children that had not been cleared by the government censors (Mulley 2012). After Jebb was found guilty, the judge was impressed with her commitment and paid her fine (Save the Children). This donation initiated the Save the Children Fund and the judge’s money became the first contribution. “We cannot leave defenseless children anywhere exposed to ruin — moral or physical,” she said. “We cannot run the risk that they should weep, starve, despair and die, with never a hand stretched out to help them” (Save the Children
