Help Disabled Children with Shelter & Care

“The abusers insert a candle or fingers in the vagina of children torture them. If the children don’t relent even then, the abusers put chilli powder so that children will say “yes” because of the burning of the skin… There are teeth marks on their bodies, and their vaginal parts are burnt. When children stay in these conditions, it is painful even to hear,” says Lalitha SA of the Society for Participatory Integrated Development (SPID), while talking about many heart-rending stories of trafficked children in red-light areas. In over three decades, the team of SPID led by Lalitha, has saved over 3000 children from the red-light areas in Delhi, such as GB Road, and many from clutches of sex trafficking. While Lalitha has also helped many women escape the clutches of being forced into sex work, the SPID is focused on rescuing children and giving them a better life.Sadly, many more children need to be rescued and need a loving home. SPID needs your support to carry on the mission, to move out of the small shelters that are subject to arbitrary rental increases or landlords’ whims, to permanent locations where she can rescue more children and give them all the love they deserve. Your support will give these children the care and upbringing they need. Donate easily through UPI, all debit/credit cards and net banking. Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India).“I have limited funds and very limited space, and if I had the funds, I would be able to rescue many more children and provide them with more comfort. With folded hands, I plead with you that you help us with funds in large numbers and support us in providing us children with a decent life. Become a part of the mission,” pleads Lalitha. Lalitha plays a vital role in the survival and safety of vulnerable children in the red-light areas. As SPID is almost entirely dependent on donations from the public, we can support and strengthen SPID’s mission to save children.

20th of May would be remembered in the history when the extremely severe cyclonic storm Amphan pounded Odisha, West Bengal, and Bangladesh, leaving untold devastation not only in parts that were ready for it but also in areas that were unprepared. Cyclone Amphan has caused great damage in rural and urban areas in both Bengal and Odisha. According to reports 75+ lives were lost, majorly in this super cyclone. Thatched houses, small shops, livestock, trees, and crops have been ruined in the areas affected in both the States. Mostly families from vulnerable communities that have suffered the most and many of them have seen their homes and livelihoods destroyed. In the midst of the COVID19 outbreak, Cyclone Amphan has caused untold sufferings for the farmers, fishermen, and migrants whose homes are shut down and crops destroyed. We need to help victims of both these disasters. Anudip is responding and we request your support to this emergency response and help those who need it the most. 
 Cyclone Amphan has affected East Medinipur, South 24 Parganas, North 24 Parganas, and Kolkata districts in West Bengal and Kendrapara, Jagatsinghpur, Balasore, Bhadrak, Mayurbhanj and Puri in Odisha. Reports say, 72+ have died in Bengal and houses, crops, farmland have been completely wiped away. Fishermen have suffered great losses. The tidal wave broke embankments and many thousands of hectares of crops and farmland have been destroyed. More than 5000+ trees have been uprooted. With deep roots in the Sundarbans delta of River Ganges, Anudip Foundation has been constantly trying to reach out to our 1000+ employees and Anudip Alumni who are based in the South 24 Paraganas district of West Bengal. Our staff and Alumni, are now working as Relief Agents and in touch with the Panchayats and BDO offices to list the number of victims affected and volunteer in providing the essential relief aid to the ones in need. We have impacted nearly 1000+ people by providing immediate relief like tarpaulins, medical supplies, dry food, water purifiers, mosquito coils/nets, and other essentials to the affected families. 
 The tandem coming of Cyclone Amphan with the ongoing pandemic of the COVID-19 is a double whammy for the people of West Bengal and Odisha. Now we need to step forward and help the communities recover from the impact of the Cyclone Amphan and continue and cope with the challenges of COVID-19. We need your support to help at least 4000 families in these two states. Please help our emergency relief response through online donation and help us create a relief fund. Please donate!
