Introduction
Who We Are
Cry Child Foundation is a non-governmental organization dedicated to supporting underprivileged children living in slum areas. Founded on 1st April 2022, our mission is to bring hope, education, and a brighter future to children who are deprived of basic necessities.

Cry Child Foundation transfers knowledge to village communities through education and empowerment. Cry Child Foundation strongly believes that collective participatory action is required for balanced and sustainable community development.
Living in rugged mountainous terrain presents Cry Child Foundation with many problems and with challenging working conditions. These hurdles are overcome by working in partnership with communities to develop practical solutions to the challenges faced by rural people. Cry Child Foundation, by generating the desire in the underprivileged to improve their own living conditions, help people to live a life of dignity and self-respect.
Most people live below the poverty line, agriculture is poor, and deforestation is a chronic problem, as is the associated lack of irrigation and drinking water. Women have low social and economic status even though they provide the major strength of the village economy. There is a lack of health care and education.
Some of the projects being undertaken by Cry Child Foundation include watershed management in badly eroded landscapes, development of non-conventional energy sources such as bio-gas for household cooking, new technology in agriculture and related fields (horticulture and composting), community health care, and promotion of women’s groups and youth groups. Cry Child Foundation see themselves as agents of change in terms of voluntary activity.
