Critical Issues We Confront
Our interventions are rooted in ground-level socio-economic surveys across the slum clusters of Panvel and Kamothe.
Eradicating Child Labour
Census data shows millions of children in India between 5 and 14 years old are trapped in child labour. In our target communities, children work as street scrap pickers, flower vendors, and domestic help to supplement meager household incomes.
Nirmal Jeevan intervenes by offering free day-care drop-in facilities, daily nutritious meals, and bridge classes, replacing labour with books and childhood joy.
Breaking the Cycle of Illiteracy
Education is the ultimate equalizer. Children between the ages of 11 and 14 from migrant families are at severe risk of dropping out due to academic lag and financial duress.
We provide free tutoring, school admission counseling, notebooks, uniform sponsorships, and digital literacy, ensuring these children finish high school and break free from poverty.
