Summary
The aim of the program is to help transform the lives of underprivileged young girls living at the Janani home by providing their needs that range from food, shelter to an excellent all-rounded education. Challenges India’s rapidly deteriorating sex ratio (2011: 918 girls for 1000 boys) has been linked to many factors, but primarily among these is the perceived value of a girl child. However, if girls are not given equal access to education, then they cannot truly shine and prove that they are valuable. Girl children are not provided resources they need to acquire good education, safe life. Girls are discriminated against, so they are not given the same type of educational opportunities as their male counterparts.
Solution
The Janani home provides proper shelter, food and structured day for the young girls living there. Their stay is comfortable, clean and supervised by several adults. They attend evening school daily and various extracurricular activities such as art, dancing and singing. Prime Trust also provides the girls with access to quality medical care. This consistence and active work being done at the Janani home is sure to leave lasting and positive impact on the girls who call this place home.
Long-Term Impact
The girls will be brought up in an environment that will equip them with the tools to lead a self-reliant life. We remove the children from neglectful and abusive homes, and give them a chance to be surrounded by loving individuals. The nutritional, medical and educational care they receive will create a structured and safe life. The Janani home also provides a safe place where they girls can be nurtured, as children, and become productive members of society, when they reach adulthood.
