Donate online to NGO: Support and Help India's Children Through Charity Donations

Why Children?

Millions of children in India still struggle for basic rights—education, nutrition, healthcare, and safety. Their dreams are cut short by poverty, child labour, and child marriage. But YOU have the power to change that.

At CRY – Child Rights and You, we believe every child deserves a happy, healthy, and secure childhood. For over four decades, we have been working tirelessly to ensure that India’s children get the opportunities they deserve. Your generosity can help them build a brighter future.

Who We Are?

Founded in 1979, CRY is India’s leading child rights NGO, dedicated to creating meaningful and lasting change in the lives of underprivileged children. CRY currently operates 144 projects in 20 states and 118 districts.

With your support, we address children’s critical needs by working with parents, teachers, Anganwadi workers, communities, district and state-level governments as well as the children themselves. We work on changing behaviours and practices at the grassroots level and influencing public policy at a systemic level – thereby creating an ecosystem where children are made the nation’s priority. Our key focus areas include

Education

We conduct awareness drives to highlight the importance of education and ensure that all children are enrolled in school.

Protection

We prevent child marriage and child labour by creating awareness about the harmful effects of these practices. Additionally, we connect families with MNREGA job opportunities.

Health and Nutrition

We ensure children receive timely vaccinations and sufficient nutrition by connecting them to government healthcare services
