Our Story
To Children With Love Limited is an Irish registered charity founded by Dublin woman Debbie Deegan in 1998. She met a group of abandoned children in a Russian orphanage suffering from a severe lack of love and made a promise to them that she would be back to help. The charity was formed and 21 years later, she and her team are still by their side. Since then they have reached out to thousands more children in the same situation. To this day she continues to carry out that promise, the children feel loved and have achieved huge success in their lives. The cycle of abandonment has been well and truly broken.
In 2015 To Children With Love took its wealth of experience of working with young people and launched its pilot Irish project The Rising Tide Project for a DEIS band one school in Dublin. This project runs parallel to the many other programmes of To Children With Love. It simply means we have brought our expertise home.
