Enable children with disabilities in Indian slums.
Organization information
OSCAR (Organization for Social Change, Awareness and Responsibility) Foundation
Location: Mumbai, India
Summary
Children with disabilities living in slums are the most disadvantaged group in Indian society. They are 5 times more likely to be out of school & often subject to severe social exclusion. Negative attitudes deter disabled kids from taking part in the family, community or workforce. OSCAR's specialised sports activities, events & equipment encourage & enable kids to be part of a team, to discover their own unique ability, in the classroom & on the field. Raising confidence & aspiration is key.
