Missing Link Trust (MISSING) works to prevent child sexual violence and exploitation by using education, art, and technology to drive awareness and lasting change.

Our flagship initiative, the Missing Awareness and School Safety Program (MASSp), is not just an educational program—it is a scalable and transformative solution. MASSp uses repetitive, dialogue-based learning modules rooted in global best practices, and delivered through art, storytelling, and games. This participatory design builds trust, confidence, and lasting behaviour change among children while sensitizing teachers and parents to safeguard them.

So far, MASSp has reached over 191,000 students across India.

Through the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2025, we are fundraising to bring MASSp to BMC schools in Mumbai’s F Ward—one of the city’s most vulnerable zones for sexual violence and school dropouts. Our goal is to reach 4,000+ children, ensuring that each one has the tools to recognize unsafe situations, resist exploitation, and seek help.

Appeal

Every child deserves to feel safe—in their homes, schools, and communities. Yet, in Mumbai’s F Ward, children face some of the city’s highest risks of sexual violence and school dropouts. Without early intervention, their chances of completing education and growing up safe diminish drastically.

Through the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2025, Missing Link Trust is raising funds to bring our proven Missing Awareness and School Safety Program (MASSp) to 4,000+ children in BMC schools in this vulnerable zone.

Funds raised will directly support:
- Implementation of MASSp modules through interactive sessions using art, games, and storytelling.
- Training of teachers and school staff to recognize risks and respond effectively.
- Development of child-friendly learning materials to reinforce safe behaviours.

At just ?670 per child, your contribution can provide a child with life-saving knowledge and confidence to resist exploitation and seek help.

Your support will help us build a protective safety net around thousands of children—ensuring they grow up not just educated, but safe, empowered, and free to dream.
