STOP CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE: TOGETHER WE CAN!

Location: Ahmedabad, India

Summary

In India, a child is sexually abused every 15 minutes. Thus, it is a problem that cannot be ignored. About 85% of the offenders are known to the victim & only 25% of the victims speak about their plight. Since it is not possible to keep an eye on the children all the time, creating awareness on the issue is the need of the hour. This project aims to fulfill this by undertaking awareness meetings/gatherings with community members, youth and school children in its rural and urban work areas. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
