What we do
Delhi, India
Partner since 2021
- We are a Delhi based NGO, founded in 2014 we, today, are a network of almost 100 acid attack survivors among them 30 are employed with the foundation on different projects. Chhanv works in multiple directions for at-risk, socially isolated acid attack survivors. Chhanv works as one point center for all kinds of help needed to survivors.
- The foundation’s campaign Stop Acid Attacks is a seminal effort in bringing awareness on the rising number of acid violence occurring in India. Our network of acid attack survivors is greeted with praise by all corners of society for their restless fight to stop such violence. Sheroes have turned out as places where faces with scars are not behind the scenes. Sheroes’ is a power to reckon with — a mighty effort and narrative of our moving times. Once burnt and scarred for life, there are around 30 survivors who are fellow humans slowly shedding the veil and counting on courage and their contributions have posted our advocacy on the acid attack.
- Our foundation’s work has been recognised globally as we proudly achieved different milestones winning the US government’s prestigious award, NDTV Indian Of The Year & CNN-IBN Indian Of the Year, German broadcaster Deutsche Welle’s award for Stop Acid Attacks campaign, President of India’s Nari Shakti Award for Sheroes Hangout model and many more. Our supporters include generous individuals as well as organisations.
- While helping survivors to rehabilitate and providing them jobs, we found that many of them lacked professional skills and so we thought that a café could be the only place where both the skilled and non-skilled ones can work and earn together besides spreading awareness to other people about acid attacks. Thus, the idea of Sheroes Hangout came up. A venue where new wave feminism evolves every day to overcome the challenges faced by women in South Asian societies and cultures.
- We started Sheroes Hangout in Agra in December 2014. Today, with two cafes, in Agra & Lucknow, the foundation has employed 30 survivors and added value to the life of hundreds of other girls by providing them counselling, medical help, career and education opportunities.
