Project Overview
Kashif is a 12-year-old orphan who was forced into labor at a tea shop after the death of his parents. Trapped in debt bondage, he works long hours in harsh and unsafe conditions to repay a loan he never chose. Instead of attending school and enjoying his childhood, Kashif faces exploitation, exhaustion, and uncertainty every day.
Debt bondage remains one of the hidden forms of child labor, where vulnerable children are pushed into work due to family poverty and unpaid debts. Kashif’s case reflects the harsh reality many children face in marginalized communities.
The Problem
Kashif has no access to education, proper nutrition, or emotional support. His daily labor exposes him to physical and psychological harm. Without immediate intervention, he risks remaining trapped in this cycle of poverty and exploitation for years.
Children like Kashif deserve protection, education, and the opportunity to build a future free from abuse.
Our Solution
This project is designed to rescue Kashif from debt bondage by clearing the remaining loan that keeps him trapped in labor. Once freed, our organization will ensure his protection and rehabilitation through:
Project Impact
With your support, Kashif will have the opportunity to reclaim his childhood and begin a new chapter of hope and dignity. Education will equip him with the skills needed for a brighter future, while emotional and social support will help him heal from trauma.
This project will not only transform Kashif’s life but also raise awareness in the community about child rights, education, and the dangers of child labor. His journey can inspire other families to break free from exploitation and choose education over labor.
Current Progress
Thanks to the generosity of 6 donors, we have raised $398 toward our goal of $2,000. We still need $1,602 to fully rescue and rehabilitate Kashif.
Every contribution brings us closer to freedom, education, and a safer future for Kashif.
