Rescue sex workers & at-risk children in India

Thank you so much for your support of our children’s education. It has been an incredibly challenging few years for our students as they have spent most of their time learning online. Our 12 Std exams are currently taking place and our 10 Std exams start on 15 March. We hope you join us in wishing our children good luck, we will be waiting with baited breath to see whether our slum school teachers hav managed to keep them on track during the pandemic. We had 100% pass rates last year so fingers crossed we manage the same again. Our children are slightly nervous but also exctied for their exams. Education is so important to our children and their families and play a key role in breaking the cycles of poverty that exist in our slums.

As an example, Hema lives in Siddharthnagar, mainly known for its fights, gambling dens, and liquor sales, and has been attending our Balbhavan for the last seven years. Her father is a laborer, her mother is a housemaid and her brother also works to help his family. Despite being brought up in an impoverished family, Hema has shone as a brilliant and talented student, enthusiastically participating in every school and Balbhavan activity. Last year, she passed her 12 std with excellent marks of 83%. This helped her gain admission for ANM to study nursing. The course fees are well beyond the family’s reach but thanks to your generous support we have been able to sponsor her education and she is on track to fulfil her dreams and ultimately uplift her family’s financial and social status.

We are so grateful that you believe in our work and want to help our beneficiaries. We wouldn’t exist without you so I truly do appreciate everything you have done to support us, thank you!
