Street Children

Samvedna

It is our mobile Health and Education service for Street Children. Almost 90% of the Street Children that are seen selling newspapers, incense sticks, begging etc., on the streets of Jaipur, come from slums. They are the children of poor parents who undoubtedly love them but lack vision and positive optimism to work towards a better future for their children. So far we have covered approximately 18,000 Street Children through Samvedna Camps.

Jagriti

Meaning ‘awareness’ is our program focused on spreading knowledge and awareness among Street Children regarding their rights. We constitute and hold Children’s Parliaments in slums. These Children’s Parliaments meet once a month and discuss their progress and future plans under the guidance of Vatsalya’s Child Rights Activists. There are 11 Children’s Parliaments in Jaipur with 110 Child members.

Medhaavi

We also identify and select academically talented children from the slums and provide them with the needed support to attain higher goals as part of our Medhaavi program.

Our hope is to expand the slum projects and offer these to many more children in need. If you would like to help support this initiative please
