RAISING FUNDS FOR

SALAAM BAALAK TRUST

In the 1980s, the making of Mira Nair's award-winning, 'Salaam Bombay', revealed the dark underbelly of Mumbai's streets, where several childhoods were at stake. A combination of socio-economic exigencies, political circumstances and parents' struggle for survival created a large population of children at risk, living and working on the streets of India. SBT provides a sensitive and caring environment for street and working children, and those in difficult circumstances. It seeks to provide a platform for children to realize their full potential, their right to a safe and secure space, education, and health and nutrition. SBT aims at creating a nurturing environment that can foster the physical and mental growth of street and working children in difficult circumstances. The mission is to help children experience their childhood in a safe environment and turn their dreams into reality!

MY SUPPORTERS

A big thank you to all those who have donated on this page.

ABOUT ME

Greetings!

I am Rohan Kwatra, the Co-founder of Stylore, a premier fashion styling consultancy. I'm an avid long-distance runner and proudly associated with Adidas Runners, Delhi. Beyond my entrepreneurial venture, my interests encompass fashion, fitness, sports, books, and spirituality.

With a dedicated involvement in the child development sector since 2014, I've gained a profound understanding of the significance of children within our society and the crucial need for their protection. I have volunteered for the NINEISMINE campaign, a campaign of and for the children convened by PRATYeK for the Wada Na Todo Abhiyan for a month in New Delhi.

I got an opportunity to volunteer for Door Step Schools in Pune where I conducted surveys for their campaign 'Every Child Counts' in order to locate the children who were not enrolled in schools. I also helped the organisation with the enrolment of these children in the nearby schools.

From July 2017 to October 2022, I volunteered with Make A Wish India as Wish Granter & Wish Organiser. My major role was to visit a designated hospital weekly and interact with children with a life-threatening medical condition & identify their innermost wish. At Wish Granting events my role was to help the team plan, organize, and successfully implement the wish-granting event.

During September-October 2022, I raised funds for Salaam Baalak Trust, Delhi in association with Vedanta Delhi Half-Marathon.
