- The SCF movement promotes themselves as an educational resource center for teachers and educators who often lack an in-depth knowledge.
- SCF fund comes from American Express, from whom SCF has received more than $1m from card members. Other global partners include Serco Group plc and the Boston Consulting Group, Ikea, Diner's Club, Royal Doulton and the SAS group. (A single project in Afghanistan loosely linked to SCF was supported by the Edmond J. Safra Philanthropic Foundation.) The rest of SCF's funding comes from appeals and donations, legacies, volunteer branches, retail income and trusts and legacies.
- SCF runs a number of projects in Gaza and involving Palestinians that include political dimensions, including a very biased version of the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict. SCF has also failed to condemn the Palestinian exploitation of children for use in suicide terror attacks, and is conducting a major campaign to distort and demonize Israeli defenses against terrorism, including a presentation at the Geneva based session of the UNHCR in 2004.
