As you begin your tax planning, don’t forget that you can make a difference while saving on taxes! By making a tax-saving donation under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act, you can support underprivileged children and claim an income tax exemption.
When you donate to Child Rights and You (CRY) — one of India’s most trusted and impactful NGOs — you help transform the lives of vulnerable children by ensuring they have access to education, healthcare, and nutrition while protecting them from child labour and child marriage. Your contribution isn’t just a financial investment; it’s a lifeline for children to build a brighter future.
How Your Donation to CRY Makes a Difference
At CRY, we believe that every child deserves a happy and secure childhood. For over four decades, CRY has been working tirelessly to ensure that children across India receive the care, protection, and opportunities they need to thrive. Your donation directly supports our critical programs focused on education and child protection:
✅ Protecting children from child labour and marriage through education: We believe that education is key to safeguarding children from exploitation. By conducting awareness drives and working with communities, we help parents understand the importance of education, ensuring that children go to school instead of being forced into work or early marriage.
✅ Bridging the education gap: Through CRY’s Bridge Learning Initiative, we help children who have fallen behind in school catch up on their studies, reducing the risk of dropouts and giving them a fair chance at a better future.
✅ Creating safe and supportive school environments: CRY works with schools and communities to create child-friendly learning spaces, ensuring that children are not only educated but also protected from harm and exploitation.
Why Your Support Matters
Education is one of the most powerful tools to break the cycle of poverty. Yet, millions of children in India still face barriers to accessing quality education due to poverty, gender discrimination, and inadequate infrastructure. CRY works on the ground to address these challenges by enrolling children in schools, ensuring they stay in school, and empowering them to dream of a better future. By keeping children in school, CRY helps prevent child labour and early marriage — giving them a chance to build a life filled with opportunities and hope.
