About us
Salaam
Baalak Trust (SBT) believes that all children must dream, of better days, of
happier times. Simple dreams – of warmth at night; of a hot, cooked meal; of
someone to dress a wound and hold a hand when it hurts. And less simple ones
– an education; a job; a monthly salary; four walls to call your own; above
all, a future. For the future is what children represent. SBT has been working for the last 26 years to provide care and
protection to street and working children in Mumbai & Delhi. From 3 staff and 25
children on a balcony of the Ground Reserve Police at the New Delhi Railway
station, we have now grown to over 160 staff, providing support services in
Delhi NCR through our 24 centres- including five shelter homes, 19 day
centres and through Childline. Over the past 26 years, Salaam Baalak Trust has made a difference in the lives of about
58,000 children, repatriating about 8000 of them back to their families and
has enrolled about 34,000 in various literacy programs. |
