Children Empowerment
Nireekshana prioritizes child protection policies and advocates for children's rights, ensuring accessible education for every child. Through educational support, awareness campaigns, nutritional assistance, merit scholarships, and special events like competitions and picnics, Nireekshana empowers children from marginalized backgrounds, including those affected by HIV, those with special needs, children of high-risk groups, HIV orphans, and single-parented children. The organization aims to prevent school dropouts by providing comprehensive support and encouraging quality education. Many children supported by Nireekshana have pursued higher education, breaking the cycle of poverty. Nireekshana restores family structures impacted by HIV/AIDS through education, helping children achieve their goals and become responsible citizens, positively impacting their lives and communities.
Shivani, a young woman supported by Nireekshana since childhood, fondly remembers the special times and awareness campaigns and the importance of education and goal-setting and other topics such as child sexual abuse and trafficking. She is currently pursuing her MBA while working part-time, which helps her pay for college and support her widowed mother and sisters. Shivani is grateful for this opportunity, as it is uncommon among her friends. Her job not only supports her education but also contributes to her family's well-being. Shivani plans to continue working here until she completes her studies. "Big thanks to Nireekshana for the support throughout my journey.”
