LETTER FROM ONESKY
Dear OneSky Friends,
We are grateful to share with you stories of the young lives transformed by OneSky-trained caregivers in 2022. And we are grateful to you, our partners and supporters, for being as passionate as we are about serving vulnerable children in low-resourced communities in Asia.

Numbers tell an important story of growth and sustainability, and we highlight some of those figures in this report. In 2022 alone, we reached 54,500 children and trained more than 19,000 caregivers in mainland China, Vietnam, Mongolia and Hong Kong SAR. Since our founding in 1998, OneSky has benefited more than 286,000 orphaned, abandoned or displaced young children through our responsive care programs.
But even more important than numbers, are the stories and images of thriving children and engaged caregivers that we hear and see every day from the OneSky program teams. We share some of those in this report too, giving you a glimpse of the lives that have been touched by the generosity of OneSky supporters around the world.
We are also always thinking of the children we haven’t yet reached. Urban migration, climate change, pandemics and other adversities hit them the hardest, not only because they lack resources, but because many parents with young children have been forced to leave behind supportive communities to search for jobs in unfamiliar cities. We know that very young children who have access to well trained, responsive adult caregivers and safe and stimulating learning environments have a far better chance to weather some of these big world challenges than those who do not. We need to reach them, and with your continued support, we can.
In 2022, OneSky deepened our partnerships with governments, other nonprofits and funders. All, in different ways, bringing us closer to replicating the systems change that we’ve been able to support in mainland China, to Vietnam, Mongolia and Hong Kong SAR as well. We showcase several of those collaborations, each made possible through your generosity.
With gratitude,
