Since 2018 HAMAP-HUMANITAIRE has worked with the NGO UTAB, which built, together with the Indian NGO GIFT, a nursery school (balwadi) and a day care centre. The girls (and a few boys) from the Jamrushi Nagar slum in Mumbai are enrolled by GIFT's management according to their situation and what their family can manage.
After nursery school, GIFT enrols the girls in local primary and secondary schools, then in a sixth-form college.
All the girls come together at GIFT's Day Care centre to eat, work, draw, play and take part in educational activities and supervised outings.
Twelve years ago none of these girls reached the equivalent of Year 10. Today more than thirty pass the equivalent of A levels. And around fifteen are in higher education or working.
UTAB and HAMAP-Humanitaire, with GIFT, support all these young women.
25% of GIFT's needs are funded by Indian sponsors. The rest is covered by UTAB and HAMAP-Humanitaire
To that end, HAMAP-Humanitaire is continuing the UTAB sponsorship project, giving GIFT financial and moral support as it builds the future of these girls and young women.
With 240€ a year, or 20€ a month, you fund a child's secondary school enrolment fees, uniform and school supplies.
Would you like to sponsor one or more children?
It is very simple:
Just fill in the form and send it back to us.
During the year you will receive news of the girls you sponsor and their school results.
Many thanks for your support
