CRY – Child Rights and You exists today – to amplify the voice of children. We believe that children are citizens in their own right, entitled to the full spectrum of human rights.
At CRY, we do not believe in charity. Nor do we run schools, orphanages or dispensaries. Instead we partner grassroots-level NGOs working with children, their parents and communities. 30 years of working with and for children have taught us that resources have little to do with it. In over 6700 villages and slums across 18 States, we have witnessed transformational change happening. All it takes is communities becoming aware of their rights and coming together to ensure them. Not just by enrolling children in schools but by addressing the root causes that keep them hungry, illiterate, exploited and abused. Causes like gender, caste, livelihoods and displacement.
We are the IIT Kharagpur Volunteer Chapter of CRY. We aim to implement CRY’s objectives in and around IIT Kharagpur.
Do write or call us (+91 9775550295) to know more on child rights or share with us your suggestions, comments and queries. It’s the only way we’ll know how you feel about India’s children.
