Dear Friends and Supporters,
I am honored to represent The HEAL Foundation, and today, I come to you with a heartfelt appeal. In India, child sexual abuse (CSA) is a pervasive issue, bordering on an epidemic. According to a 2007 study by the Ministry of Women and Child Development, a staggering 53% of children in India experience one or more forms of sexual abuse before they reach 18 years of age.
What are we raising money for?
We are raising funds to champion our mission, a mission that is essential to protect the most vulnerable members of our society: our children. We are committed to preventing child sexual abuse through education.
Where will the funds go?
Your generous donations will be strategically directed to our educational initiatives. These include:
Child Safety Workshops for Teachers: Your support will enable us to conduct in-depth training for teachers, equipping them to recognize, prevent, and address child sexual abuse within the school environment.
Parent Workshops: We will use your contributions to educate parents about child sexual abuse, its warning signs, and how they can best support and protect their children.
Personal Body Safety Workshops: Your donations will fund workshops tailored for children from Grade 1 to Grade 10. These workshops teach children about body safety, the correct names of private body parts, personal space, physical boundaries, and what constitutes safe and unsafe touch.
How will your donation help?
Your support will be instrumental in achieving our vision. By donating to The HEAL Foundation, you are actively participating in the prevention of child sexual abuse:
Empowering Teachers: Your donations will equip educators with the tools and knowledge necessary to identify and prevent child sexual abuse within schools.
Educating Parents: We will use your contributions to conduct more workshops for parents, ensuring they are informed and able to protect their children effectively.
Protecting Children: Your donation will directly benefit the most important recipients – the children. By funding personal body safety workshops for them, you provide the knowledge and skills they need to safeguard themselves.
Whom will it help?
Your donation will directly benefit teachers, parents, and, most importantly, the children of India. Your support will ripple through society, creating a safer environment for our future generations.
Please take action today.
We urge you to stand with us in our mission to prevent child sexual abuse through education. Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference. By working together, we can heal the wounds, protect the innocent, and build a brighter future for the children of India.
