Street Children in India
We have worked with street children in India for over 25 years and have spoken to the CEO of Railway Children India, Navin Sellaraju, to find out more about who these children are, why they end up living on the streets, and how our work is trying to tackle this growing problem.
Bringing a whole new virtual world to street children in Tanzania
Our marketing manager Graham Frost recently visited the teams in East Africa to help put together a virtual reality film that we will be able to use in our fundraising. The company behind the project, Youtoring, also took the opportunity to introduce the children at our Kivuko day centre to people and places they would never normally have the opportunity to see.
An unforgettable journey across India’s Golden Triangle
Words cannot describe how spectacular this experience was. From cycling past elephants, camels, up epic hills to visiting the Taj Mahal and most of all seeing how the Railway Children make such a huge difference to vulnerable children in India. It was one hell of a journey covering 450km in six days across India’s Golden Triangle but one I will never forget.
These are the champions: empowering local communities to look out for children
Our teams in East Africa have pioneered a way of giving extra support to street children in Tanzania with the help from local community members. Our communications officer Henry Mazunda, went to meet the inspiring people willing to give so much of their time to others, when they have so little themselves.
