Help Us Make Karjat Malnutrition-Free with Project Poshan!

Malnutrition is a silent crisis affecting countless lives, especially in rural areas like Karjat. Karjat is a well-known tourist destination that is familiar to many of you. But did you know that children in its villages are struggling with malnutrition? Over the past two years, we’ve successfully reduced 60% of severe acute malnutrition cases in Karjat. Now, we need your support to continue this progress, bring that number down even further, and transform the villages of Karjat into a model of health and nutrition.

Every 1500 Rs. you donate will help us provide:
• Nutritious meals and essential supplements for children.
• Health check-ups and growth monitoring to track progress and ensure we’re making a difference.
• Educational resources and training for families to sustain long-term change.

By supporting Project Poshan, you are not just helping a child survive and have a bright and healthy future, but also empowering a whole community to thrive.
