Lyndon B. Johnson, who served as the 36th President of the United States from 1963 to 1969, is remembered for his commitment to the welfare of children.

Johnson's efforts helped countless children overcome barriers and escape the cycle of poverty.
3. Barack Obama
Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017, focused on creating opportunities for children from marginalized communities.

Obama's emphasis on equality and opportunity benefited numerous children who had been historically disadvantaged.
4. Nelson Mandela
Although not a president in the traditional sense, Nelson Mandela, as the first Black President of South Africa, played an instrumental role in shaping the lives of children in his country. He established the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund, which focused on providing healthcare, education, and support to vulnerable children. Mandela's efforts continue to inspire leaders worldwide to prioritize the welfare of children.
