   Are you someone who makes investments to 
save tax? Here’s a suggestion for you to get 
an 80G tax exemption. Donate online and 
help a child go back to school. World Vision 
India ensures vulnerable children have access 
to quality education. In other words, the 
organization makes sure children go to school 
regularly. For children living in vulnerable 
communities in rural areas, education is only 
a dream. Girls are denied a proper education. 
Families consider them a burden and marry 
them off before they turn 18.
Rachna first heard of child marriage at a Children Club meeting run by World 
Vision India. Before that, she didn’t know child marriage was illegal. In her 
village, 60 km from Lalitpur town, children were married off when they hit 
puberty. Rachna’s parents Papu, 45, and Kamal, 44, married when they were 
13 and 12 respectively. At 15, Rachna was at that crossroads. The family was 
beginning to look for a groom for Rachna. Then World Vision India stepped in.
Partner with World Vision India and make an investment in the lives of 
children like Rachna. Donate online to get 80G tax exemption and make a 
difference in the lives of vulnerable children in India. Send a child back to 
school.
In India, the legal age of marriage is 18 for girls and 21 for boys, but in 
Rachna’s village, people were unaware of the legal systems in place. Let’s 
fight injustice in the lives of vulnerable children, especially girls living in 
fragile contexts. Donate online and send children back to school. Invest in 
their lives and benefit from 80G tax exemption.
Rachna is now 18 years old and studying in the 12th standard. Her 
parents never attended school. They are farmers, and that would have 
been Rachna’s fate. “I would have been married if it was not for World 
Vision India. And I wouldn’t be in school,” Rachna says. Rachna’s 
parents began looking for a groom when Rachna was 15. World Vision 
India’s staff talked to her parents and sensitised them about the ills of 
child marriage. “I have a friend who got married when she was around 
14. She bore a child, and she and her baby were sickly. In the Children 
Club, we learn about the health implications of child marriage on the 
mother and the baby. Parents are also sensitised,” says Rachna.
A small intervention and counselling is all it takes to prevent child 
marriage in India. Send children back to school. Donate online and 
enjoy an 80G tax exemption.
 
Rachna’s parents were ignorant about the evils of child marriage. They were 
pressurised by their relatives to get their children married. That was a common 
thing. But they have decided to put Rachna through school and college.
Let’s encourage more parents to send their children back to school. Donate 
online to support children. Enjoy the benefits of 80G tax exemption by 
sponsoring a child.
Rachna has taken part in self-defense programme organised by WV India. More 
than anything, there has been an overall behavioural transformation in the 
community. “I want complete my education and be able to stand on my own. I 
want to become a teacher and then later marry. My parents are understanding 
and they don’t force me anything now,” Rachna says Rachna has participated in 
Gender Mela organised by WV India to teach about gender equality through 
various activities.
Here, boys are asked to do household chores 
they would otherwise never do at home. In a 
male-dominated society, the gender 
landscape is much more balanced than it 
was. “Now even girls can be educated. If my 
brother can study, I can study too,” says 
Rachna.
Promote gender equality and inclusiveness 
across the country. Your efforts will benefit a 
child living in a vulnerable situation. Donate 
online and send a child back to school. Invest 
in a child’s life and reap the benefit of an 80G 
tax exemption too.
