The remaining 40% will go to Save the Children with the money raised
being used specifically for Save the Children projects in Mongolia.
Many homeless Mongolian children find accommodation in several shelters supported by
Save the Children. In the Mongolian capital, Ulaanbaator, Save the Children run a drop-in service
centre that offers children a hot meal, clean clothing and washing facilities. Staff and guest
speakers at these centres, such as doctors, talk to the children about first aid and reproductive
health. If children need medical treatment, staff take them to a local doctor or to the hospital.
Save the Children staff are also developing a certificate that can serve as a temporary identity
document for street children, enabling them to get access to health
services in the future.
