Story

In busy railway stations across the country, a silent crisis unfolds every day. Children, separated from their families, who land up in stations alone, face unimaginable dangers – abuse, starvation, and the looming threat of exploitation. The lives of thousands of children could have taken a tragic turn, but for the tireless efforts of our NGO partner Railway Children India (RCI) and their dedicated volunteers. Countless children from across 35 major railway stations have been rescued and brought to safety.

RCI is in urgent need of funds to be able to reach many more children before they fall prey to abusers and to bring them to safety. Help save the life and future of vulnerable lost children at railway stations. Donate now

Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India).

A race against time

“In a year, nearly 1 lakh children go missing and the moment these children arrive (at railway stations) they are under threat. If we don't reach out to them at the earliest, within 15 to 20 minutes, we will lose that child,“ says Lopamudra Mullick, Senior Manager, Railway Children India.  

Shockingly, a significant number of children who land at railway stations are never found or reunited with their families. They often fall prey to abusers, facing the grim realities of trafficking, exploitation, and lifelong abuse.

Railway Children India through 24-hour outreach teams vigilantly patrol railway stations, identifying at-risk children and swiftly providing them with safe shelter and care. From short-term accommodations to long-term support, they offer a lifeline to those who have nowhere else to turn. Psychosocial support, medical assistance, and counselling, are just some of the vital services provided to help these children recover from their trauma and find their way home.

Why donate to RCI

Railway Children India cannot tackle this crisis alone. Being a nonprofit organisation dependent on public support their resources are stretched thin. The urgency to reach these vulnerable children, before they are attacked by traffickers, has never been greater.

Lopamudra stresses the crucial role of public support. With annual expenditure to rescue, reunite, and rehabilitate lost children running into lakhs, Railway Children India relies on the generosity of donors to continue their life-saving work. Your contribution can make all the difference, providing thousands of lost children with a chance to return to safety, receive essential care, and rebuild their lives.

Together, we can rewrite the narrative for India's lost children. Your donation can reunite families, offer trauma counselling, ensure proper nutrition, and provide a safe haven from the dangers of the streets. Let's not allow these children to vanish into obscurity.

The little boys and girls found wandering the train stations of India lead very different lives from the mainstream. Some are fleeing abusive households, some are lost, some are simply curious about the wider world. But all of them are at risk.


Criminals and Mafia organizations are waiting at every opportunity to sweep up these innocent kids into their fold. Our initiative intercepts these goons and rescues the children before they can be taken away. Just look at our accomplishments in the period April '25 to September '25:

  • 133 children (34 were girls, 99 boys) were rescued at the railway station and premises
  •  Out of this, 87% children (116 children) were reunified with their family or placed in long term care
  •  1 child was placed in Child Care institution for long term care
  •  Remaining 17 children were all placed in Child Care Institutions for care
  •   All children protected at the station received essential care, including nutrition and emotional support, along with guidance for their well-being
  •  3 CHG (Child Help Group) meetings were held

Your contributions allow us to expand our network of stations and rescue more children while also providing even better immediate care. Please find it in your heart to make a donation for these poor kids.

Every year, thousands of poor kids all across India fall victim to criminals and traffickers.


Railway Children India needs your help to save these kids from a terrible fate and reunite them with their families. Take a look at the incredible achievements our hard-working patrols have accomplished from April 2024 - Feb 2025:

  • 1598 children have been protected through our direct intervention in 4 railway stations and 1 bus terminal
  • 835 awareness programs were conducted across different locations, reaching approximately 21,000 stakeholders
  • 3738 railway officials have been trained
  • Out of 1598 children, 1442 children have already been reunified with their families, achieving a success rate of 90%

Despite our accomplishments, we suffer from a paucity of funds. The 156 children who have not been reunited need stringent care. We urgently need your help to provide shelter and adequate nutrition to keep their body and soul together.


Please help extend our reach. Every contribution is a lifeline for countless innocent children who are at risk of kidnapping, exploitation, or worse.
