Childreach International (formerly Global Development Links) was a London based children's charity[1] set up circa 2002[2] and registered as a charity in 2004.

The charity operated multiple international projects and a UK outreach programme.

On January 31, 2018, Childreach International made an announcement to pause all of their operations due to financial difficulties.

In the movie About Schmidt, the protagonist Warren Schmidt, sponsors a child through Childreach and writes to him throughout the film.[2]
