Are you looking for ways to help a child in need in India? Is your heart burdened to see poor children struggle as labourers? Do you know you can sponsor a child and help a child have a fair chance to life? Yes, you can help change their lives by partnering with World Vision India.

The vulnerable have been hit the hardest by the crisis brought on by COVID-19 pandemic. With sudden disruption of income flow, daily wagers and other labourers are helplessly gaping at a non-existent future. When people with secured jobs themselves are beginning to get apprehensive about their future, think about those who barely survived in the days preceding COVID-19. For them, the future is something their hearts do not wish to comprehend.

According to UNICEF there are approximately 10.2 million poor children who are not going to school and instead working in hazardous industries or backbreaking jobs. This is simply because education has become a luxury. You can change this situation through your support by pledging to sponsor a child in need. You can sponsor a child and help a child get back to school.

World Vision’s child sponsorship programs focus on improving the well-being of children in need, especially the most vulnerable. Child sponsorship pairs one sponsor with one child. When you sponsor a child, you help provide essentials like clean water, nutrition, education, and more. Your online donations help your sponsored child and other vulnerable and poor children in their community break free from poverty for good.

We work to address the causes of malnutrition with special focus on children below 5 years, pregnant women and mothers through counseling, emergency feeding programmes, nutrition gardens, health worker training etc. Our livelihood interventions enable families to enhance income and provide better for their children. We also provide economic assistance for better agriculture, livestock and small businesses so that the child in the family is benefitted. The vulnerable and poor children need your support.

We not only focus on the education of the child but make sure of the holistic growth and development of the child. Construction of toilets and Remedial Education Centre in Suhani’s village is helping her progress towards a better future. Sponsorship changes lives in ways you wouldn’t have even thought. When you sponsor a child, you help a child have access to better opportunities in life.

12-year-old Suhani studies in the 8th standard. She has an elder sister and a younger brother. Her mother is a housewife and her father works in a private company in Pauri. Before World Vision India started working in her village, people practiced open defecation and it was dangerous especially because of the leopard and tiger attacks. Pauri has a high case of leopard and tiger attacks.

After construction of toilet in Suhani’s home, she feels much safer. A Remedial Education Centre (REC) has also been set up in the community which is helping Suhani do much better in school too. Suhani feels that she has a better chance at life now. Along with Suhani several other poor children in her community now have access to clean and safe toilets and good education. This was possible through the support from sponsors like you. You can sponsor a child by partnering with World Vision India and help a child have access to happy childhood.
