Taking Children Out of Poverty and Giving Them Hope School dropouts and child
labor are a massive problem in India, particularly in the state of Andhra
Pradesh. In poverty-stricken areas, many children are denied their right to
health, education, emotional, and social development. Government resources to
combat the problem are not enough. Established in 1992, Heal is an international
charity that helps disadvantaged populations in India escape the poverty trap.
Our projects create opportunity amongst the most disadvantaged children in
India, including orphans, the underprivileged, the visually challenged, and
amputees. Children with adequate family support, resources, and positive role
models have higher self-esteem and do better in school. Just as a parent wants
the best for their child, we want to give our children the best.
