Every child deserves a childhood filled with learning, safety and hope. You can help make that possible.
Across India, millions of children are still denied the most basic right, the chance to go to school and build a better future. Many drop out because of poverty. Many are pushed into child labour or early marriage. Many simply never get the opportunities they deserve.
But together, we can change that.
CRY – Child Rights and You has been working for 47 years to ensure happier, healthier childhoods for India’s children.
From remote villages to crowded cities, we work on the ground and with governments, teachers, parents and communities, so every child gets the support they need to learn and thrive.
Today, CRY works across 20 states, partnering with thousands of grassroots organisations to create real, lasting change.
Thanks to supporters like you, we have:
This isn’t charity.
It’s a movement to ensure every child in India grows up with dignity, opportunities and hope.
Even a small contribution help a child:
✔ Stay in school instead of being pushed into labour
✔ Receive proper nutrition and healthcare
✔ Grow up safe from exploitation, abuse and early marriage
✔ Dream bigger — and achieve those dreams
When one child rises, the entire community rises with them.
Every donation makes a real difference — and every child deserves a fair chance.
