Help Children Go Back to School

Why Donate?

Your support can help children stay in school.

Your support can help children stay in school and continue learning, no matter what challenges come their way.

For millions of children from underserved communities, school has resumed but learning hasn’t fully returned. Without academic support at home or access to guidance, education is still at risk of stopping halfway.

Your support can help ensure children stay in school, catch up, and continue toward their future with confidence.

How will your donation help?

A staggering 46 million children aged 6–17 are out of school in India (Source: UDISE+ 2024-25). To ensure children who return don’t fall out again, CRY’s Academic Support Centres help them catch up, stay motivated, and rebuild the confidence to continue their education.

CRY’s Academic Support Centres help:

Conduct support classes using interactive audio-visual platforms to bridge the learning gap and protect children from dropping out of school.
Help motivate children to continue learning through fun and creative activities like storytelling, singing, dancing, etc.
Conduct awareness drives on the importance of education for communities and parents and explain ill effects of dropping out of school, child marriage, labour, and trafficking.
Form children’s collectives to build the agency of children to promote their well-being and give them the confidence to pursue their aspiration.

Impact So Far and Future Goals

In the last year, CRY ensured 2.3 lakh children are enrolled in school. Now, we’re counting on you to help us reach more children, reconnecting them with education and empowering them to reimagine their future.
