About us
Vikalp is a non-profit organisation registered under the Bombay Public trust Act-1950, working in the sector of Health, Education and Livelihood. It operates in Mumbai and Gujarat. The organisation works towards socio-economic upliftment of the underprivileged population. It provides vocational training to the women and youth, imparts nonformal education to the children and also provides medical assistance to the needy people. We aim to work towards the welfare of the people living on the streets or unauthorised pavements surrounded by vulnerabilities including Homelessness, lack of identity, very few or no livelihood opportunities, poor clothing, poor education and no civic amenities, and most critical is the constant abuse, be it physical, mental or sexual. Under its livelihood programme, we also manufacture decent quality of customised paper products made from 100% recycled paper to create Livelihood opportunities and generate funds to do welfare activities.
