VITAL

Primarily focused on children in distress living in Kolkata, India; we work to provide better brighter futures via essential streams such as education, protective services and counselling.

Vital targets societies' most vulnerable, working with those forced into the red light district, victims of trafficking and street children. We fight to protect the rights of those who suffer abuse and violence. One of the hardest things for us to hear is a child ask us "why do you care?"; one of the biggest benefits for VITAL has always been demonstrating others care too. We give the children hope and show them that whilst there are millions of children living in poverty, there are also millions of us ready to give them love. We also aim to maximise each donation we receive by guaranteeing 100% of every penny given to VITAL goes straight to the children in need without covering any admin costs. We believe in close cooperation with the local police force and government to install true social change. By working with young victims of trafficking abuse, street and railway children we hope to empower India's next generation to ensure their human rights are forever protected. We are small but smart, frugal yet commercially driven and we really make a difference. We are driven by passion and fuelled by the hope of reaching as many children as possible.
