India has an estimated 46 million children between 6-18 years of age who are not in school. Some have never had the chance and many have had to drop out – either to work as child labourers or because they’re being forced to get married.

With your support, we address children’s critical needs by working with parents, teachers, Anganwadi workers, communities, district and state-level governments as well as the children themselves. We work on changing behaviours and practices at the grassroots level and influencing public policy at a systemic level – thereby creating an ecosystem where children are made the nation’s priority. Our key focus areas include –
We conduct awareness drives to highlight the importance of education and ensure that all children are enrolled in school.
We prevent child marriage and child labour by creating awareness about the harmful effects of these practices. Additionally, we connect families with MNREGA job opportunities.
We ensure children receive timely vaccinations and sufficient nutrition by connecting them to government healthcare services
Every contribution you make helps us ensure that India’s children can attend school, receive proper nutrition and healthcare, and remain protected from abuse and exploitation. Join us in creating happier childhoods for India’s children.
