30-year-old Sunita’s husband Bablu passed away 
during the second wave of COVID-19, leaving her and 
three children behind. Bablu was a balloon seller. His 
death was sudden and cruel for the family that was 
struggling to get food on their plate during the 
lockdown. “We spent the money we received from 
World Vision India on the funeral. With the remaining 
we bought rations and balloons so that we could start 
the balloon selling business again,” said Sunita. Today 
she is able to support her children through this 
livelihood support from an NGO. Such is the impact 
you can create when you donate online to NGOs 
working for the welfare of children and vulnerable 
poor families.
With the support of various people who donate online to World Vision India, many 
changes came to Neeraj’s village. The community and families were taught to 
educate children and not employed. Parents gradually began sending their children 
back to school. Those children who couldn’t afford going back to school were being 
sponsored. Today, the awareness in the village against child labour and need to 
educate children has spread far and wide.
1.6 Million Girls in India remain out of school as reported by NCPCR (2018), suggests 
that 39.4% girls between 15-18 years of age are out of school. Another report states 
that 57% girls drop-out upon reaching the 11th grade (UDISE 2020). Distance to 
school act as significant roadblock for girls dropping out from school. When you 
donate online to support girls continue their studies by gifting them bicycles, 
remember you are solving this distance roadblock and helping to educate children for 
a brighter future.
46% schools do not have functional WASH facilities – Toilet, Drinking Water and 
Handwashing facilities (UDISE 2020). Every rupee you donate online can help us 
address this challenge, so more children get chance to access education in a safer, 
clean and happy environment.
Babli knows what it feels like to suffer. “When I was in class eight,” she says, “I 
wanted to continue my education but my parents said they don’t have money so 
they can’t send me back to school. I was extremely depressed during that time. 
That’s when I heard about the children’s group conducted by World Vision India.” It 
was in the children’s group that Babli’s perspective changed. “Once I started coming 
there, I learnt that education is my right and I began to persuade my parents to send 
me back to school once again. World Vision also supported me in paying my fees for 
school and college.”  Today she is a teacher and a strong advocate for girl child 
education.
In India, more girls (3.2%) are out of school than boys (2.7) even today in the cohort 
of children below 15 years of age (UDISE 2020). With the support that comes when 
sponsors donate online, we are able to help drop out children go back to school and 
help educate children to get a chance at a brighter future.
 
As Margaret Mead famous quote states, 
“Never doubt that a small group of 
thoughtful, committed citizens can change 
the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever 
has,” we have witnessed that when 
committed and like-minded people donate 
online and support a cause, ‘Change is 
Possible’. Never doubt that when you donate 
online, we can together change a child’s life 
and help educate children to build a better 
and stronger nation.
Join us.  Together for children. For change. For life.
