Your child is lucky. They have you.

But, what about the child who doesn't have someone like you to turn to?

If you're a parent, you know how important it is for your child to feel safe and secure. Your child can talk to you when they have a problem too big to handle. And they know you'll take care of it.

Childhood should be innocent and carefree. But, often it's not.

Lots of children live with problems - big problems. Too many children live with abuse and domestic violence. Too many know about racism and broken families. Too many don't have anywhere to go at night because they're living on the streets.

And, sometimes their problems are life-threatening.

But, there are places a child can turn to.

One is NSPCC, and the other is the new Children’s Hospital in Oxford. Both are in need of funding. That’s why we created www.click2helpachild.com. And here’s why we need you to help.

National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC)

NSPCC is a free helpline for children and young people in the UK. Young people with a problem can call 0800 1111 day or night to talk anonymously with a counselor trained to.

If you'd like more information about NSPCC, please visit http://www.nspcc.org.uk, where you can find out just how valuable this organization is. Since it opened in 1986, NSPCC has 1,400 volunteers in 11 centers, supervised by professional supervisors and managers who answer about 2,500 calls a day. To date, NSPCC has helped over a million children.

But 4,500 children call every day. Lack of funds means 2,000 children a day cannot get through to NSPCC to find comfort, advice and protection. That's more than 700,000 children a year without the help they need.

Why not help those children get the help they need by giving a few dollars today?

Children's Hospital in Oxford

If you've ever visited a sick child in the hospital, you know they often feel vulnerable and scared. They miss their families, they miss their friends and they miss their homes. Sometimes they're too young to understand what's going on. Other times, they are old enough to understand, but nobody takes the time to talk to them about it.

Every child is different, every age is different. But, the average hospital doesn't take children's physical and emotional needs into account because it's designed and run with adult needs in mind.

Let's face it. All children should be in as normal an environment as possible, especially when they're sick. But they can't do that in a hospital meant for adults, where they're shushed, and told not to disturb, and to go to their rooms and take a nap.

That's why Oxford is building a children's hospital.

The Oxford Children's Hospital will have 106 beds, some of which will be beds for parents to "sleep over" so their young child doesn't feel so afraid and alone.

Improved classrooms give structure and offer better opportunity for learning. Bigger play spaces and sensory rooms let them play and laugh. And all that means they'll have the positive environment evidence shows they need to heal faster.

But to finish building that hospital, Oxford needs cash both for construction and for operations. They're still 2.5 million GBP short of what they need to finish the hospital.

Unless you help.

You can help our community’s children simply by buying a few pixels on this website.

Both organizations are in need of funding. And there's nothing more we want to do than to make sure they have the money to do what they're there for in the first place-- to help sick and vulnerable children.

It feels good to give. Particularly when you know you're helping sick or vulnerable children.

The idea behind click2helpachild is simple really. See that big block of pixels just below? What I'd like you to do is this-- I'd like you to help those two organizations through us.

But I want to do more than just thank you for your generosity. In exchange for helping me help them, I'll give you advertising space on this website, right here on the home page.

Every 25.00GBP gets you 100 square pixels of space.

And here's the beauty of it. The number of pixels you buys isn't limited to just one block of 100 pixels. You can buy 100 pixels now, and add 100 more next month. Or, you could buy 200 pixels now, and add another 200 more two months.

It really doesn't matter to me how you do it. All I want is for NSPCC and the Oxford Hospital to be able to help our children feel safe and cared for.
