Variety – the Children's Charity International operates as a global nonprofit focused on enhancing the well-being of children who are disabled or disadvantaged. It runs a network of local branches, referred to as Tents, spanning more than 38 locations in 10 countries, with each Tent adapting its work to local community needs. Through its programs, the organization provides direct support such as mobility equipment, access to medical care, educational resources, and experiences that help children gain independence and self-confidence. The charity traces its origins to 1928 and is headquartered in Franklin, Tennessee. A recent development is a February 2026 partnership with Carbon Lehigh Intermediate Unit and Blackburn's to deliver eight adaptive bikes and helmets to local children with disabilities, illustrating ongoing program expansion.
