A childhood for children who have never had one.
Sharon Welfare Society is a registered NGO , with several projects in the areas of education, child protection and advocacy for the rights of children, especially the marginalised and those from the streets and orphans in Andhra Pradesh.
As part of our work, we run formal and non-formal schools across our district, and outreach programmes in slum schools. Here we focus on adult literacy (especially for women) and remedial coaching for dropouts and dilenquent children.
Our outreach is also designed to empower women in areas of reproductive health, family planning, the dangers of child marriage and the rights of the girl child. We work with families in slums and underprivileged communities in Andhra Pradesh to create awareness and bring about change in the lives of the families. Our work also includes vocational training for youth and women in these communities to enable them to gain financial stability and through that empower them.
Our purpose is to create a safe, secure and bright future for underprivileged children.
