Challenge

Children in India are among the most at-risk in the world. There are an estimated 25,000,000 orphans in India. Most of these children never get support for their living and education and have scant hope to break out of the vicious cycle of poverty and ignorance. In most cases, the first casualty of lack of parental care and poverty is education. Sphoorti project to provide long term quality care to help children transform into empowered citizens.

Solution

The project provides basic needs, health care and education to 200 + children in need and distress. VJ's dream to raise $100,000 will fulfill our dream of having our own school and baring the food, education and living cost of over 15 girls. The aim is massive and we will like this amount to help us in a positive way.

Long-Term Impact

The project will provide for a primary school for more than 200 children and living cost in a completely secure and safe environment and help Sphoorti provide high-quality care in accordance with the Juvenile Justice Act (India). In the long run, these children will raise families and make sure their children do not remain in poverty and ignorance. In the last 5 years, more than 100 children have passed out of High School a pursuing Higher Education. Some of them have found jobs too.
