Project Description | Udaan is our program dedicated to breaking the cycle of intergenerational prostitution, a serious threat to the daughters of women in brothel-based prostitution. We offer comprehensive support, including healthcare, nutrition, shelter, counselling, and education, to help these girls integrate into mainstream society and secure a dignified future. The funds supported us in our daily operations of the program. Key activities include comprehensive healthcare services, such as regular check-ups, nutritional support, medical referrals and health camps. We also organized several educational activities, including after-school tuition, educational games, internal tests, stationery arrangements and career guidance workshops. Additionally, we provided vocational and skill-building classes to prepare the girls for a successful future. Psychological counselling and recreational activities were also conducted to promote holistic development. A safe shelter space was also facilitated smoothly for the girls in need. |
