Every year, donors like you help Holt's programs provide life-changing support for children and families in India who are most in need.
More than 270 million people live below the poverty line in India, where more children suffer from malnutrition than in any other country.... India has one of the highest rates of out-of-school children. Young women and girls face gender discrimination and exploitation. Families living in poverty have few social services available to them. Many struggling parents feel they have no choice but to relinquish their children to orphanage care.
With the support of donors like you, Holt works alongside our local partners to ensure children and families in India have vital nutrition and educational support to escape the cycle of poverty. Specific programs empower and educate young women and girls. For children who do not live with their family, your support ensures quality care while they wait to rejoin their family or join an adoptive family.
