Challenge

According to UNICEF in 2018, India has an astounding 29.6 million Underprivileged & abandoned children. Underprivileged are put at immediate risk because they are often seen as a burden on relatives. Moreover, with the death of a parent, children experience profound loss & a heavy burden. These children are in danger of losing opportunities for school, health care, growth, development, nutrition & shelter; in short, their rights to a decent & fulfilling life & a future.

Solution

REACHING HAND has been supporting abandoned and neglected children develop educationally, socially and emotionally as they prepare to step into their young adulthood & make a future for themselves. New Home does this by providing safe accommodation, quality education, nutritious food, necessary health care, emotional support and life skills engagement so that they become independent & responsible future citizens of society.

Long-Term Impact

Currently, 'New Home' caters to the need of 165 children irrespective of different caste, creed, gender or religion by providing equitable and all-inclusive facility for their overall development. We also plan to develop in these children in public speaking & oratory skills so that they have a bright future. We have also setup a well-equipped school to educate many more children of age group 7-18 & welcome them into our HOME to achieve our dream of 500 girls.
