The principal mission of I-India, established in Jaipur, is to provide basic needs, love and dignified living conditions for children and communities living in extreme poverty.

Ladli is supported by many different organisations worldwide.

Abha and Prabhakar Goswami made an inspired choice over 20 years ago to establish I-India. What started off as the delivery of a handful of meals to street children is now an integrated model successfully solving human rights issues at the grassroots level.

Toilet Twinning run by Tearfund

Tearfund supports projects in some of the world’s poorest communities that will enable families to build a basic toilet, have access to clean water and learn about hygiene – a vital combination that saves lives. They work with local partners to set up sustainable water systems such as solar-powered water pumps and gravity-fed tanks.

Without proper toilets and clean water, people are trapped in a vicious cycle. They are likely to become sick through sanitation-related diseases, and illness means they cannot work or farm their land, so they earn less or grow less food. The children often miss school, because they are sick or because they’re busy collecting water.
