What we do

Empower India’s Children with Education

We wish you a Happy Independence Day! 🧡🤍💚

India’s future lies in the hands of its children – curious, bold, and brimming with untapped potential. This Independence Day, let’s ignite that spark of curiosity in every child and fuel their journey toward a brighter future.

As India becomes the 4th largest economy in the world, we must remember that true progress is measured not just by numbers, but by the curiosity and dreams of our young minds. Every question, every “why” and “what if” opens a door to new possibilities. When we empower children to dream, explore, and question, we equip them to become the changemakers and leaders who will shape the nation’s tomorrow.

At CRY, we are dedicated to providing children with the opportunities to explore their curiosity and reach their full potential. We provide them with the resources and safe spaces they need to stay in school, stay curious, and stay motivated.

Your donation this Independence Day will help:

  • Create awareness about the importance of education in communities, protecting children from harmful practices like child marriage and labor.
  • Provide vital support classes to bridge learning gaps and keep children in school.
  • Inspire curiosity and creativity through fun and engaging activities like storytelling, singing, and dancing.
  • Build children’s confidence and self-worth through children’s collectives, giving them the tools to promote their well-being and pursue their dreams.

Your gift will not only ensure that children continue their education but also empower them to dream without limits. Together, we can unlock a world of possibilities and transform the future of India, one child at a time. 🧡🤍💚

Join us in this mission. This Independence Day, let’s invest in India’s future by empowering its children to dream big and achieve greatness.
