Why facilitating and Ensuring is necessary help to girls in crisis?

For all young girls today, existence is not easy. A happy upbringing with resources to discover, play and feel safe is yet a distant probability. Deprived of their basic rights and loaded with adult roles, adolescents are frequently exposed to work exploitation, trafficking, social withdrawal associated with an early wedding, morbidity, or mortality as a result of earlier pregnancy and childbirth-related difficulties, sexual abuse, and domestic violence. Living as an adolescent girl in times of conflict or war means even greater risks than an adolescent boy. In any corner of the world, adolescent girls are equally helpless in conflict crises and situations. Besides, there are yet many “forgotten crises' ' across the world, to which nobody pays attention. Girls who are fleeing or live in tense zones, or girls who have been shifted as an effect of environmental change, natural calamities, or war, face crucial and devastating effects. Research…

Facilitating support against natural disasters

Natural disasters, like earthquakes, floods, wildfires, or climatic events, can take place close to us or far away. But when we learn about calamity, it has some impact on us. We feel for the community that might be damaged and the people who have lost a dear one, home, and employment. It has an intense effect if you know the community that is affected.

Empowering financial and moral aid to poor children and communities

Our country is home to millions of poor children and communities who have very little means in life. Many of them even strive to get the basic needs of life: food, hygienic water, enough clothing, and a roof over their head. Despite significant progress made in the socio-economic world since independence, even today, almost 25% of India’s population exists below the poverty line, as per the World Bank survey. This tells that a massive 280 million people in our country survive on less than 80 rupees per day on spending power parity.

The solution to tackling deprivation does not lie in doling out help to the needy.
