“They insert a candle in the vagina, fingers are inserted (in the vagina) and tortured, and if children don’t relent even then, they 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 Society for Participatory Integrated Development (SPID), in course of talking about many heart-rending stories of trafficked children in red-light areas.In over three decades, the SPID led by Lalitha, has saved over 3000 children from the red-light areas, many from clutches of sex trafficking.Sadly, many more children need to be rescued and in need of a loving home. But Lalitha needs our support to carry on the mission, to move out of her small facility so that she can rescue more children, house them in a permanent location and give them all the love they deserve. Your support can help her give these children the care and upbringing they need.

In the dark and dingy alleys of red light areas, injustice, pain and suffering run rampant. And the worst affected are the children who grow up in red-light areas and are subjected to constant abuse and violence. “The sight of a 12-year-old girl being gang-raped by a group of men near a house l haunts me to this date. I was filled with anguish and resolved to do something,” says Girish Kulkarni who has made it his life’s mission to rescue children from red light areas and give them a safe and secure childhood. In the last 3 decades Girish has saved over 1100 girls from a life of abuse in red-light areas, giving them a loving home, education and medical care. He has further supported over 20,000 children with a better life.Sadly, 250 of the children rescued from abuse and exploitation are HIV positive. The high cost of medication has left Girish struggling for funds. Your support can help him provide these children with the care and upbringing they need.

I had even seen my friend’s 15-year-old sister and 70-year-old grandmother being forced to do sex work for the price of a cup of tea”, recalls Girish. “I started by merely feeding and teaching children of sex workers initially with the intention of giving them some respite from the horrors of life of abuse in red-light areas. Gradually more and more mothers started coming to me and asked me to take their children away, even if it was just for a couple of hours,” he further adds.The work that Girish started in his youth gradually grew to become a movement, with many more joining his cause. His NGO Snehalaya to date has transformed the lives of millions. Girish’s work is crucial for the survival and safety of vulnerable children of sex workers. Snehalaya is almost entirely dependent on donations from the public and your support can strengthen his mission to save children most in need. Donate generously.The horrors of life in red light areas“The cruelty and abuse that children as young as 6 or 7 years of age face is something that I can’t explain in words. Young daughters of sex workers are made to watch their mothers being raped, are brutally assaulted and forced into sex work. No child deserves to grow like this, Girish says in anguish.Sad reality of life for children growing up in red light areas is that they are deprived of even the most basic needs like proper food, safety and education. Moreover, a majority of children rescued by Girish are diagnosed HIV positive. The task of securing medication, providing them quality education and much needed nutrition is one that requires constant support from donors. Moreover, the increase in healthcare cost has left Girish struggling to keep his home for children going. But your support can enable him to give his children a loving environment and save many more who still remain trapped behind closed doors.Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest and most trusted online donation platform, to help Snehalaya give hundreds of children rescued from red-light areas a life away from violence and abuse.

“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.

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

The proposed project is aimed at forming eco clubs and organising child rights promotional activities through formation of evening tuition centres in the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad. Our programmes are designed and implemented at the gross-root level, enabling the local community to participate and utilize their resources. The rich children get extra coaching through paid tuition classes whereas this facility is denied to poor children. Hence, they lag behind in education which ultimately ends up in their school dropping out from school. In order to help the poor children, we propose to run 10 free tuition centres in twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad, which will help 300 poor students to be benefited. It has been found out that these centres will immensely help the poor children in pursuing their education and promoting their performances. At each centre, 30 poor children studying between 1st to 10th class will be admitted. Special tutors will be imparting supportive education at each of these centres. The centers will be running at evening hours (5.00 p.m to 7.00 p.m) after the closing of schools at 4.30 p.m. A cup of nutritious beverage (hot milk) will be provided to the children. 
 Don Bosco Navajeevan is a child-friendly centre started in 1999 towards welfare of children and youth at risk. At Don Bosco Navajeevan, so far around 24,000 children and youth at risk have benefited from personal contact, out of which 98300 have been persuaded to return home. These children are provided three meals a day, medical care and clothes during their stay at DBNJ. More than 290 street children (boys and girls) stay in all the centres of Don Bosco Navajeevan, where 210 of them are given an opportunity to go to school and the rest are undergoing vocational training at our technical school. On an average, 50 floating children are always present at shelter. We are also running a day care centre at a slum where 40 children and youth are being assisted through our services. 
 Education is the right of the child and at times, children's rights are violated due to various reasons. Children are never given a change to voice their problems and needs, thus leaving them to live in an unsafe environment. This project majorly aims at building collective strength of children. The project supports children in their academics and enhances their talents. Children are a most neglected population and they are not involved in the process of development. The major support to children comes from parents and this projects aims at orienting, capacitating and training parents to understand and support children. Children are the future citizens of the country and they need to be empowered to bring about a difference in the community. The project provides a space for children to learn decision making, articulating and organizing small events that revoke the development process in the locality. This will improve the quality of education among children and will also enhance social responsibility.
