Slum Walks in Delhi
What we do
Free education, including English language, for local children in the slums, providing a safe place to learn and stay off the streets. We run the following schools in the slums of Kathputli Colony, Delhi:
Nirvan School
Our school provides a classroom for 40 children and supplies them with clothes, games, notebooks and education. Our school also creates jobs by employing local young guides and teachers from within the slums.
Nirvan Vocational School for Women
This school provides stitching and beauty courses, providing practical skills for women to earn money.
Nirvan Kindergarten
We take care of slum children from age 2-5 years and provide their meals for their parents who both have to work as labourers, cleaners and cooks in other people houses.
We donate used clothes and other items useful for kids and adults. We also provide financial help to buy medicine for infants and children whose parents can't afford medicine on a regular basis.
We support local artists by promoting their talent.
We recognized around 100 widows in the slums with no earning household member and more than 3 kids in their family. We provide flour, spices and vegetables on a monthly basis and right now we are supporting 10 widows. We are looking to expand this to help more widows, so any food donations would be appreciated.
