Hi, I am supporting The HEAL Foundation as they are one of the few foundations in India working to eradicate child sexual abuse. According to government data, around 23 per cent of girls in India are sexually abused or harassed before 18 years of age. When young girls and even boys are hurt and sexualized by adults, they may learn secrecy, and shame, that sex measures self-worth, and that their boundaries don't matter. No one can be trusted, and the world is not safe. Child Sexual abuse was a topic that could barely be spoken about in Indian society before a few years ago. Does this imply that most people ignoring this issue indirectly support it? People need to broaden their mindset and unite to help destroy this social evil so that children in India can roam freely without the impending sense of doom that if they open up about their societal issues, they will be frowned upon and not accepted. By donating to this foundation, you, too, can help solve this issue. Your donation, big or small, can create a change. These funds will enhance HEAL's outreach to various schools and communities and thus make a safe environment for children. Join this fight and donate now!
