About NGO:
A happy, healthy and creative child whose rights are protected and honoured in a society that is built on respect for dignity, justice and equity for all.

And people to discover their potential for action and change. To enable peoples'collectives and movements encompassing diverse segments.

Fund Usage:

CRY (Child Rights and You) acts as an enabler, a catalyst between two groups of people:

[a] development organisations and individuals working at grassroots-level with marginalised children, their families and communities, AND

[b] people like you, coming together from all walks of life who believe in the rights of children. CRY believes that by being a link or facilitating organization of this nature, it has greater impact by ensuring higher reach through hundreds of individuals and organizations that work with the most deprived communities and their children.

In over three decades, CRY has enabled communities in villages and slums across 20 states in India to work towards addressing the root causes of issues like deprivation, adult unemployment, exploitation and abuse - that constrain the rights of children. By mobilising these communities CRY along with its NGO partners have ensured over 1,500,000 children across India with opportunities they could not dream of. None of these micro-miracles would have been possible without the active involvement and support CRY experienced from more than 150,000 individuals like you and organisations in India and overseas.
