We Ensure the Wellbeing of Mothers

Thanks to your donation, we are making sure that young mothers and their children receive proper nutrition and healthcare support. As you know, in India, especially in its rural areas, the maternal mortality rate is still very high, at 61 percent (2017). A large number of women between the age group of 19 to 29 years die during or before childbirth in India. According to Sample Registration System (SRS), as many as 34 percent pregnant women below the age of 30 died during their pregnancy between 2015-2017. Women die mostly from preventable or treatable causes like pneumonia, diarrhea and malaria.

We Protect Girls’ and Boys’ Health

Your investment also helps us provide necessary health care services to girls and boys in rural areas. As you know, it is hard to reach your full potential if you are sick and unable to attend school. Because of our program, thousands of children are able to maintain their education because our community health workers and rural hospitals ensure that we stand guard against preventable illnesses caused by unsafe water, poor sanitation and unhealthy diets.

We Prepare Children to Learn Well at School

The Education Program staff make sure that all children are well prepared for school. While millions of young children in India and other developing countries can’t attend school due to a lack of intellectual, social and emotional skills, we are working hard to prepare children for success at school. And because of your generous sponsorship support, girls and boys in millions of villages across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana are able to take part in our early care and development programs, both at home and in their villages.

We Strive to Help All Students Graduate from School

Learning today for a better tomorrow. Every child deserves a quality education. But more than 50 million of the world’s children each year never even set foot in a classroom. And 130 million more still can’t read after years of schooling. Through school and community-based reading, writing and math programs, you help us ensure children are in school, protected and learning – providing the best chance for a successful future.

We Create Impactful Solutions

We work to create impact across all programs in rural India. Your sponsorship support helps develop new programs that support community initiatives and benefit our children. For example, our Mobile Library program helps children experience the power of reading and allows many children in remote towns and villages to read books for the first time!

We Empower the Entire Community

Children cannot thrive if their families and communities don’t. We support the entire community through developing programs: nutrition, healthcare, family welfare, education, ecology, and financial assistance for people with disabilities, especially women and children. In addition, we provide jobs to the families as part of the programs we support, such as construction of houses, water wells, etc. We don’t leave anyone behind.

Special Support for Children with Disabilities

Children with disabilities experience discrimination and stigma and their families are often overwhelmed with their support and worried with their future. These children receive additional benefits such as walking aids, prostheses, wheel chairs, physiotherapy to make their lives easier. Additionally, they have priority for the housing program to have access to houses adapted to them. Even more important, we support an income generation program fund that helps disabled children and their families to develop any activity that generates income with the final goal of living an independent life.
