Meet Warren McGregor
Warren McGregor
Founder & Co-President, Children's Foundation International
Warren McGregor's story begins in South Africa, where he witnessed his homeland's extraordinary transformation from apartheid to a nation striving for freedom and opportunity for all its people. That journey — and the stark needs he witnessed among the continent's most vulnerable children — shaped the man he would become. In 1999, Warren moved to the United States, settling in Sarasota, Florida, to become a conduit for resources and awareness to the plight of those in Southern Africa, while building a life centered on three enduring passions: humanitarian work, family, and business.
In 2009, that calling became Children's Foundation International (CFI) — a nonprofit Warren founded on a simple conviction: that the most vulnerable children deserve the most basic building blocks of a future. CFI's work is rooted in three pillars — Fresh Water, Education, and Nutrition — each addressing a need Warren saw firsthand growing up in Southern Africa.
Today, that mission reaches over 2,000 at-risk children across Eswatini (Swaziland) and Zambia every year. CFI serves more than 700,000 meals annually, ensuring no child has to learn, grow, or simply survive on an empty stomach. Through its Pre-school education programs, CFI has provided schooling and learning support to over 2,000 children, many of whom would otherwise have no access to a classroom. And with more than a dozen fresh water wells drilled, CFI has brought clean, safe water to communities where it was once scarce or non-existent — transforming not just individual lives, but entire villages for generations to come.
To date, CFI has sent over $1,000,000 to fund these life-changing projects across Southern Africa. Every well drilled, every meal served, every child given the chance to learn traces back to a simple belief Warren has carried since childhood: that those with the means to help carry the responsibility to act.
Warren lives in Sarasota, Florida, with his two children. Outside of his work with CFI, he is the owner of Luxe Coastal Properties and serves as President of the Sarasota Southside Rotary Club, where he continues to make an impact in his local community.
