Fast population growth hinders the improvement of living conditions of the poorest people. The status of girls is weak and illiteracy prevails. Children with disabilities are often abandoned by their parents. In India, our partner organization Delhi Council for Child Welfare (DCCW) focuses especially on promoting access to education for children in vulnerable positions, such as girls and children living in slum areas. In addition, DCCW offers tutoring, vocational training and quiet spaces to do homework. Many of the children have lost their parents and thus we also support sustaining the day-to-day life in the home where the children currently live. Support for children’s homes in India and Bangladesh We support children’s homes run by our partner organization Families for Children (FFC). The children’s home sin Podanur, India and Dhaka, Bangladesh have guaranteed a safe childhood for thousands of children over the past decades. We support the children’s home run by FFC, where the children receive professional treatment, food and care. Many of the children have disabilities. Children who have disabilities are offered the opportunity to study according to their own level in government or alternative schools, or to receive vocational education.
