Program description: |
|
|
There are about 100 million children in India who do not attend any school and spend most of their time on the streets. In Delhi, the capital city, it is estimated that there are close to 1,750,000 street children of which 7-10 % are runaways. In fact there are more than 2500 children who live in and around New Delhi Railway Station. They can be seen scavenging the rubbish heap for a meal, sleeping between the tracks, often beaten and sexually abused, falling prey to drug peddlers, pimps and child traffickers.
There is so much missing from their lives - food, security, health, love & education and a place to play, sleep and dream.
Volunteers can bring smile on the faces of these disadvantaged children by helping to create an environment conducive for their holistic development in order to enable them become a part of mainstream society. Volunteers can work at the contact points, being run by various organizations, which serve as day care centers for these street children. They can assist in providing love, care, basic literacy, recreation and most importantly spend time and shower affection on them. It can make a world of difference to their lives.
