Girls' and
Boys' Hostels
In our Girls’ and Boys’ Hostels, vulnerable girls and boys can get away from the streets and start a new life with care, comfort, nutrition and education - and a place to call ‘home’.
We opened our two Hostels in 2014, and today they provide a long-term home to 20 girls and 25 boys. All the children attend local government schools and receive daily tutoring from teachers to support their education. They also learn basic computer skills and receive lessons in health and hygiene to strengthen their overall well-being and independence.
When they are not in school, the children spend their time doing a wide range of activities just like any other child: playing games and music, dancing, drawing, meditating, doing sports and other recreational activities. These activities promote their mental, physical and social development, and most importantly, they create space for the joy and freedom of childhood.
Our team and skilled social workers also help the children work through the trauma they carry with them and support them in navigating the challenges they may face in life, both now and in the future. For instance, in India, girls in particular are at high risk of abuse, trafficking and child marriage.
