A dignified life for the forgotten girls of India

The program (we work this project continously, so it is really a "program") is going on very well and we are happy. It is true there is a lot more to be done, but 2023 has benn a good year in terms of help sent to our girls and number of new girls that we were able to get from the street and give them a family, medical treatment, feeding support and schooling so they will be able to have a dignified life. Many efforts from our side and from our great partners in India made. Also Our volunteers that we sent to India from all over the world made a great job.

This 2023 we also started to work in Parvati Nagar Slum in Jaipur. There are a lot of girls, daughthers from migrants that came to Jaipur from Bengala (mostly Kolkata area) looking for a better life. But schooling opportunities for these girls are a bit more than zero. So in 2023 we started to include them in our sponsoring program, and this 2024 we start a new project school for them all.

In this 2024 we will work double to get double impact and double the number of girls  that we already support.

Thank you very much for your support.

Rajasthan, India. Thousands of girls inherit HIV at birth. From the poorest caste, at the age of 6 or 7 they see their parents die from the virus. They do not appear in any registry and the rest of their families disowns them... they are invisible. Alone, with nothing, hungry and afraid, they wander the city until the virus destroys their immune system and they fall ill in the ditch of some road. Help us giving them a Home, Medical care, Feeding, and Schooling... Help us giving them a LIFE...

Through this Program, which is more than a Project for it is continuosly going on, we have protected for more than five years around 120 girls, and created about 35 new places for street girls. These girls now have a so low CD4 count level (HIV level indicator) that they can have a normal life, for the HIV that they have is almnost impossible to transmit. They can have friends, go to school, have a family and even have children.

We have also arranged an agreement with a Spanish online University (UNIR) to provide them with the possibility to study Online Marketing, so they can have an official recognized university grade and get a work. It is really very important to include them back into society, so they will become references, living examples that HIV is something you can live with, that you can have a fully dignified anf happy life. Examples that will fight the impending stigma against HIV infeected people. This is our aim.

We also send International Volunteers to help these girls; the contact with them teaches the girls a lot, and Volunteers give them warmth and support.

Hope you like this info. For any other, please get in tocuh with us. We will be happy to hear from you, either in english or spanish.
