Nurture supports communities that face deep structural barriers, including the Hakki Pikki and Iruliga tribal groups and the migrant waste picker community. Our integrated approach includes education, healthcare, sports for development, and gender equity. Education interventions with the WPC led to 72% improvement in attendance in schools, and learning centers bridged students into formal systems. Emotional literacy, gender awareness, and social cohesion were fostered through regular activities and sports-led engagement. Families adopted sustained sanitation practices, and primary healthcare clinics offered predictable care. The strength of Nurture lies in the trust it has built with these communities. That trust now translates into improved school retention, reduced stigma, and visible shifts in mindset and confidence.
Nurture program has made significant strides in addressing the socioeconomic challenges faced by the Hakki Pikki Tribal Group and the Waste Picker Community. Through focused interventions in education, healthcare, and skill development, OBLF has fostered trust, resilience, and empowerment. The program has not only bridged educational and health gaps but also promoted gender equity and social cohesion, creating a more inclusive environment.
