Nabo Asha Project (Kolkata, India)

Organization information

VITAL

Location: London, United Kingdom

Summary

VITAL will mainstream over 76 street children into formal education through a 'bridging' course, academic counselling, recreational activities and a daily nutritious meal, which incentivises parents to send their children to the project instead of engaging in child labour or child marriage. Priority admission is given to girls who are disproportionately represented in the population of victims of human trafficking. Many families in the area rely on rag picking and domestic labour for an income.
