Educate girls from economically backward migrant community

Meet Saloni

Saloni(name changed) is a bright young girl from Noida, Uttar Pradesh, who has been forced to grow up far too quickly. Saloni was once expected to work as a maid for 12 hours a day, robbing her of her childhood. Her father, a vegetable seller, and her mother, a housemaid, barely earn enough to make ends meet for Saloni and her three siblings. The idea of school was a distant dream—until we met her.

During one of our door-to-door campaigns, Aahan Foundation connected with Saloni’s parents and made them aware of how education could transform her future. Through patient dialogue, we helped them see that their daughter deserved a chance to learn, grow, and lead a life of dignity.

How is she doing now?

Today, Saloni is thriving in our Learning and Empowerment Centre. She receives classes in English and computer skills, participates in regular counselling sessions with a licensed psychologist, and has access to a safe space where she can study, explore books in our library, and just be a child again.

But Saloni's story is just one of many. There are countless other girls in underprivileged communities who, like Saloni, are trapped in cycles of abuse, neglect, and exploitation. With your support, we can reach them, provide them with education, emotional healing, and the life skills they need to break free and build a better future.
