For 75 years, the SOS Children's Villages organisation has been committed to the welfare, education and protection of children. Its vision is to give every child a secure future. Founded in 1949 by Hermann Gmeiner from Vorarlberg, the aid organisation is meanwhile active in 138 countries, and has also been in Liechtenstein for the past five years. The patron of the organisation in Liechtenstein is H.S.H. Tatjana von Lattorff, Princess of Liechtenstein.

The organisation's global work focuses on the protection and family-based care of children who no longer have a safe home or have no home at all. These children grow up with four to five other children with an SOS Children's Village mother. In this environment, they can attend school, learn a trade and are prepared for independence later on.

In war and crisis zones, the non-profit organisation also supports families, children and young people in need with humanitarian aid. In addition, child protection zones are set up where children can play. With our special stamp "Children's Laughter" (face value: CHF 1.00), we are emphasising the need for a secure future for children all over the world and thus honouring the valuable work of SOS Children's Villages.
