The Belgian foundation for missing and sexually exploited children turns 20 this weekend.
20 years ago 25 parents and relatives of missing and murdered children created Child Focus.
During all years of its activity the foundation has helped tens of thousands of missing and sexually exploited children.
Queen Mathilde who is an Honorary president of foundation, attended a ceremony at the Château du Lac in Genval on Thursday.
The charity’s volunteers visit schools and organise joint child-parent sessions on safe internet use. Other recent campaigns have tackled sexting and international child abduction.
Child Focus director Heidi De Pauw said: “The central message has always been: Don’t sit alone with your problem, talk about it. We want children who feel unfairly treated or just have questions to seek support from someone they can trust.”
