Where Every Future Begins: With Education

Every child deserves the chance to sit in a classroom, ask questions, discover their strengths, and dream about who they can become.

But for millions of children in India, education is still uncertain. It is interrupted by poverty, inequality, and circumstances beyond their control. When a child misses out on learning, they don’t just lose lessons; they lose possibilities.

Together, we can change that.

Let’s make sure every child gets the opportunity to learn, grow, and build the future they deserve.

Who We Are

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.

Our Impact So Far

Thanks to supporters like you, we have:

  • Reached 4.7 million children across India
  • 23,22,375 children impacted in 2025-26
  • 2,27,833 children in school
  • 1,23,367 children empowered through children’s collectives
  • 39,924 children benefitted from digital learning through CRY Support Centres
  • 34,731 children protected from child labour/ marriage/ trafficking
  • 5,917 kitchen gardens set up across 12 states to combat malnutrition

This isn’t charity.

It’s a movement to ensure every child in India grows up with dignity, opportunities and hope.

You Can Change a Child’s Future Today

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.
