It is a humble initiative, but makes a lot of difference in the lives of the young children residing in the slum. We endeavour to keep the kids away from the street and the unhygienic situation and bring them to school. By doing so, we will protect these children from illiteracy and child labour. A guaranteed right to education with this small and safe house to bring them from street to school!
