“I saw a girl, barely 7 or 8, being pushed into flesh trade. Her cries for help still echo in my ears. There were men as old as 60 r*ping the innocent child. That was the day I knew my mission in life was to get these children out of the hell-like conditions in red-light areas. They are nothing short of hell and no child deserves to grow up in this environment” says Vinay Vasta, founder of Social Activities Integration, an organisation committed to freeing children trapped in red-light areas.Vinay and his NGO have been able to provide education, medical care and nutrition to over 2,500 children. But his dream to provide safe shelter to children remains unrealized. “We do our best to keep these children safe during the day but sadly they are forced to go back to the red light areas at night as we don’t have a home for them. Your donation can help us build a safe home for children of sex workers and prevent them from being pulled into prostitution. Donate to make this dream a realityDonate 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).Life in red light areas“S*x workers use their homes which are barely 6 feet by 4 feet for their business. They invite customers in the presence of their children. Their children not only witness abuse but experience it too. Just imagine a child being told that all she can ever become in life is a pr*stitute”, Vinay shares as he explains the extent of abuse children face in red light areas.This is a life that thousands of children are forced to live behind closed doors where they suffer abuse and exploitation morning, noon and night.A ray of hopeVinay has been relentlessly trying to give children the care and education they deserve. He has provided quality English education to thousands of children, enabling them to secure a livelihood out of red-light areas. Several children taught by Vinay are today leading successful lives as professionals and Government employees. However the sad reality is that Vinay and his NGO, in the absence of a permanent shelter home, are unable to provide round the clock safety to these children, which is essential for their well-being.Your donations can enable SAI to build a shelter home for the children of sex workers and usher in a new tomorrow for them, away from the horrors of red-light areas.Donate to this fundraiser on Give.do, India’s largest and most trusted online donation platform, to provide safe shelter for children of sex workers and save them from abuse and second generation pr*stitution.NGO's 80G number: AACTS0408EF20216NGO's 12A number: AACTS0408EE20028

Help Vinay bring children facing abuse in red-light areas to safety and protect them

“I used to be sexually abused repeatedly, and when I screamed in pain, they hit and threatened me with more violence,” says Priya (name changed), a rescued child sex worker. Priya was abducted by traffickers and sold into a red-light area house before she was rescued by Guria led by Manju. For over two decades, Manju has been rescuing young girls forced into prostitution across the country. She has been shaken to the core seeing some of the most horrifying crimes that young girls have to undergo. “You can’t imagine the state of girls forced into sex work. The girls are given electric shocks and burnt with cigarette butts just to get kicks out of it. And if they get pregnant, the "owners" kick them repeatedly in the womb so that the child inside dies…If you want to see hell, it is here on this planet where young girls are sexually abused,” says Manju.Manju needs your help to rescue more young girls from forced prostitution and reunite them with their families. Donate now.Guria’s work over the yearsBased out of Varanasi, inarguably the holiest place in India, Manju and her organisation Guria, fights the sexual exploitation of girls, especially minors, by taking on the traffickers head-on, and rescuing and rehabilitating them.Started in 1993, Guria has rescued over 5500 persons from slavery, sex trafficking, and child prostitution so far. It has also been instrumental in shutting down hundreds of places that housed trafficked girls and putting scores of traffickers out of business and in jail.For instance, in 2005, a Guria-led rescue operation in Varanasi's red-light area led to the freeing of 49 women and girls, including minors. Many of them were kept against their will. Some of the traffickers were also arrested and tried. Since then, Guria has rescued thousands of young girls.Manju and her husband, Ajeet Singh began rescuing girls from Varanasi’s red-light areas and then working to stop the sex-trafficking of young girls within Uttar Pradesh and outside. The organisation’s aim is to eliminate the sex trafficking of women, especially minor girls, end second-generation prostitution and child prostitution, and rehabilitate women and girls who are rescued from the trade. Manju has faced violent backlash from the traffickers and other vested interests, but it has not deterred her from carrying on rescuing young girls from trafficking. Rescue and rehabilitationBesides rescuing girls trafficked for sex, mostly from low-income families, from across the country, Guria fights on their behalf in courts and also provides education, food, vocational training, and other facilities until they are united with their families. But because of a lack of funds, Guria is finding it difficult to rescue more girls and also take care of them once they are away from the clutches of the traffickers. Take the case of Sameena (name changed), who was abducted from Uttar Pradesh all the way to Telangana. Guria took it upon itself to rescue the girl with the help of its own work and also the authorities. After months of rehabilitation, Sameena went back to her family and even completed her education. With your support, Manju can rescue many more young girls from trafficking and help them live the life of their dreams.

Prasad and his wife Anu once had a daughter, little Prarthana , who passed away when she was still a toddler. Heartbroken but determined to honour her memory, they decided to dedicate their lives to those who had no one.  What began as adopting eight distressed children has now grown into a loving community that survives solely because Prasad refuses to give up. “My father, a farmer, ended his life owing to debt and distress. What I have faced as a child, I don't want any other child to face the same, and that is the biggest motivation. At present, we have 45 children and 25 abandoned elderly in our shelter home. We are their family. Anu (my wife) loves them like her own, and I provide for them and protect them like any father would,” says Prasad who stands as the last hope for these young ones and the elderly.  Unfortunately, he has been supporting this home with his meager earnings as an autorickshaw driver. He is in urgent need of help to keep a roof over his large family. You can lend him a hand in his noble work. Donate as much as you can today.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).<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/98111ac5-4ef3-4afb-a796-f80221239fc8.webp" />When pain became a missionPrasad knows what it means to grow up with hunger, fear, and the constant uncertainty of survival. He remembers the nights his family slept without food, the days his mother struggled alone after his father’s suicide, and the years he worked as a child doing menial jobs just to stay afloat. Today, those memories shape every decision he makes as the founder of Prathana Foundation, a home where abandoned elderly parents and orphaned children live together, as one family.“Our home is very unique. Here, orphans and elderly parents who have been abandoned by their children live together as a family. Here grandparents get the love of grandchildren, and orphaned kids are cared for by the elderly,” he shares with quiet pride.  In this one home, 45 children and 25 abandoned elderly have found love, belonging, and dignity, things life once denied them.But behind this warmth is a daily struggle that Prasad carries alone.  The daily struggle for survival“It’s very difficult for me to earn enough to sustain such a big home as an auto rickshaw driver. I am constantly in fear that if I run out of money, what will happen to the elderly and the orphans,” he says. The rising number of children and elderly people taking shelter here means more mouths to feed, more medicines to buy, more hospital visits, and more responsibilities on a man who already gives everything he has.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/5eb1afae-3dd4-4e3d-b01b-bc7695c38936.webp" />Even after both he and Anu lost their jobs, he took up auto-rickshaw driving so the home could run. But the expenses of running such a large shelter are overwhelming.  Children need nutritious rations, school supplies, a safe environment, and emotional support. Elderly parents, many frail and chronically ill, need constant medical attention, medicines, and hospital visits. And the need keeps growing.I request you all to see these children and elderly as a member of your family and donate generously for them, so that their lives can be transformed,” Prasad appeals.Your support today can ensure- Daily nutritious meals for children and elderly parents  - Medical care, medicines, and emergency support for the elderly  - Safe shelter, clothing, and hygiene essentials  - Schooling, books, and basic education for every child  In a world where abandonment and loneliness break so many lives, Prathana Foundation stands as a rare home where forgotten grandparents and orphaned children rebuild hope together.  But this home, this family, cannot survive without you.  Your contribution can help Prasad continue saying “yes” to every abandoned child… every lonely elderly parent… every life that deserves love.  Donate today and help ensure that no elderly mother sleeps alone, no child suffers the scars Prasad once carried, and no family built on love collapses because of financial struggle.  Donate to this fundraiser on give.do, India’s most trusted online donation platform, to support Prathana Foundation in its mission to rescue and care for orphans of farmers and abandoned elderly. Your kindness can help keep this beautiful family together.
