Across the world there are hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of children that sleep alone on the streets every night. In India, every five minutes a child arrives alone at a railway station. Immediately they face violence, exploitation, trafficking & abuse. Scavenging for scraps of food, they are beaten, attacked, raped and even killed. Reaching out to these children as early as possible while they are in a moving train or after they arrive at a railway station is important for their protection and rehabilitation, preventing them from slipping into street life. Railway Children India (RCI) works with these children at and around 10 railway stations across 7 states in India.
In 2013 Railway Children India (RCI) was established as a non-profit company under Section 8 of The Companies Act, 2013 to scale the impact of Railway Children’s work in India. RCI is also registered under section 12A & 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961. IN ADDITION TO REGISTRATION under the Darpan, Niti Aayog. RCI is working with a singular vision of creating a “world where no child has to live on the streets”. RCI is working at 10 railway stations protecting around 7000 children every year.
We believe in a world where no child ever has to live on the streets.
To create and enable sustainable changes in the lives of children living on the streets.
