An All-Volunteer Organization to Benefit Children In Need

The French-American Aid for Children, Inc. ”Children Come First" (FAAFC), is a New York based, 501(c)3 non-profit organization, whose primary purpose is to provide financial assistance to abused, disadvantaged and sick children in the United States and in France through programs administered by vetted children’s charities in both countries.

Our organization is composed of volunteers and has been in existence for the past 67 years. The longevity of the organization is a testimony and a tribute to the devotion of its all-volunteer membership and its long term corporate supporters - some going back over fifty years - such as Air France, Cartier, Chanel and Société Générale.

A Board of Directors governs the Organization. The current President is Ms. Marguerite Mangin. All Officers and Directors serve part-time without compensation,      contributions to employee benefit plans, or expense account allowances.
