A Children’s Day donation goes beyond celebration, it builds futures. Through CRY, over 2.24 million children have already gained access to education, healthcare, and protection. Your support helps us reach many more, ensuring every child can learn, play, and dream without fear. This Children’s Day, give them the chance to grow with dignity and hope.
The sound of laughter echoing in the corridors.
The excitement of opening your tiffin box filled with surprises.
The joy of running barefoot in the rain, chasing paper boats down the street.
Those little moments shaped who we are today.
They taught us joy, friendship, curiosity, and courage.
But not every child gets that chance.
In India, over 47 million children between 6–17 years are out of school.

Behind every statistic is a child missing out on the magic of childhood —
a child who wants to learn but has to work,
a girl who dreams of becoming a teacher but is forced into early marriage,
a boy who can’t play because he must earn for his family.
Your contribution to CRY transforms lives, not just today, but for generations. It helps strengthen communities, keep children in school, ensure healthcare reaches the last mile, and safeguard their rights. Together, we’ve changed the story for millions! This Children’s Day, your donation can help reach many more, ensuring every child grows up safe, educated, and free to dream.
This is where you can make a difference.
For more than four decades, CRY – Child Rights and You has been working to ensure every child can go to school, stay healthy, and grow up safe from exploitation.
When you support CRY, you’re not just funding a programme —
you’re giving a child the chance to dream again,
to raise their hand in class,
to discover their voice and believe in themselves.
Because education changes everything.
It gives children confidence.
It opens doors to better health, opportunities, and dignity.
It’s the difference between surviving and truly living.
This Children’s Day, be the reason a child smiles.
As we celebrate the children we once were, let’s make sure every child today gets to live those moments too — to laugh, to learn, to play, to dream.
Because when we give children a happy childhood, we give the nation a brighter future.
Gift a happy childhood.
Gift hope.
Gift a future.
