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.

Help Lalitha to protect vulnerable children from trafficking by moving them to a safe and loving home

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.

Vikash, established in 1986, has become a leading Non-Government Organization in Odisha, working towards achieving sustainability in Developmental Pursuits and Protection of Right of people. Vikash believes that development can take place with the communities' own efforts and that Vikash only needs to facilitate the process. It believes in the strength and power of the people - the toughest task is only to make the community realize and explore their own strengths. With an innovative approach to development, Vikash tries hard to help people to help themselves without imposing any development programmes on them. In the process, Vikash intends to strengthen and support community structures and local institutions. Vikash believes in human initiative, strength and innovativeness, rather than on charity. Vikash believes "small is beautiful" but at the same time we realize that small things can perish without making much contribution to the whole.  Like streams coming together to form a river, the growth of great civilizations come from a network of small initiatives - their overall joint effort realizing more significance. Here at Vikash, we have designed our line of action to work in large areas while maintaining the beauty and sanctity of small things. With a strong determination to serve the people in need, Vikash spreads its activities in 14 districts of the State. With time spreads its wing to infinite, Vikash dreams to spread its initiative beyond the boundaries made by man. We the people of Vikash, sure, we will succeed. We will be happy, one day, about our contribution to the development of society.

Namita Patra, a 15-year-old girl residing in Barimunda, Baulanga, Gop, Puri, faces the challenges of Mental Retardation with Epileptic Seizures. Her family comprises her parents and an elder brother. Her father transitioned from being a driver to a shopkeeper due to the demands of Namita's condition, while her mother takes care of the household. Namita's condition is linked to inadequate prenatal nutrition and the family's past crises, which induced stress. These factors have resulted in her daily life being a struggle, compounded by frequent seizures that have plagued her since the tender age of 3. Prior to receiving project support, Namita's seizures worsened when medication was discontinued. This unfortunate circumstance led to a decline in her school attendance, as she battled memory loss and struggled with concentration issues. However, with the implementation of project support, Namita's life has taken a turn for the better. Consistent medication has significantly reduced the frequency of her seizures, allowing her to attend school regularly and progress to the 8th grade. She has made strides in her independent reading skills, mastered basic mathematics, and can now perform daily tasks with more ease and proficiency. Medication remains a key component of her routine, in accordance with the doctor's guidance. Notably, Namita's newfound sense of well-being has also translated into her social interactions. She has become more sociable, cooperative, and readily lends a helping hand to those in need. Her family's outlook has brightened, and they are hopeful for a brighter future for Namita.
