We need your help, please join us and make a difference! Over the past 12 years, Darjeeling Children's Trust and its supporters have been improving lives of the vulnerable children of Darjeeling, India. This has included the build of an essential children's home. We are now raising funds to complete the dormitories, staff accommodation and water harvesting. This build will also support and partner with local businesses and create jobs. Help us create a safe, happy home for these children.
Our challenge is to provide a healthy space for children, giving them safety and a place to flourish; especially at this time of global pandemic. Water supply is a problem in the town. There is insufficient water storage system in the new children's home to meet the demand.
Our Solution is to build and fit out the final dormitory and activities room. These will provide a home and essential safe space for the children allowing them to meet their potential. We plan to rectify the water storage problem with problem by installing large reserve tanks that will enable us to harvest rain fall.
Each year, the young young people living at the Home will have the opportunity to study in a supportive, modern environment in order to pass the exams so vital for getting a job. They will live healthier lives so that their school attendance record will improve. They will be able to help their families, they can start to realise their dreams and enjoy more options for their futures. Note the donation options on the right are indicative, funds may be re-allocated to other options when necessary.
