Atlanta has long been a community committed to improving children's health around the world. Through Childspring International, which grew from the mission and ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta, generations of healthcare professionals, volunteers, donors, and community leaders came together to help children access life-changing care.

In 2023, Childspring International joined World Pediatrics in a strategic partnership that united two organizations with a shared vision for the future of pediatric healthcare. Together, they combined decades of experience, trusted relationships, and complementary approaches to expand access to specialized care while strengthening healthcare systems around the world.

Today, Atlanta serves as World Pediatrics' third U.S. fundraising market and plays a vital role in advancing the organization's next chapter. As one of the world's leading centers for healthcare, innovation, and global collaboration, Atlanta is uniquely positioned to help expand World Pediatrics' mission and accelerate lasting change for children and families worldwide.
