Muskaan Brings Smiles Where Help is Unreachable

It’s hard for us to imagine without a roof over our heads. Do you know how it must feel to live on the streets or in a government shelter?
Life can be stressful enough for an adult homeless person, but imagine a homeless child living in the streets. Although we cannot solve homelessness overnight, our Muskaan initiative is definitely trying to support such kids with nutrition, education, and lots of warmth.
Muskaan means “smile,” and that is precisely what we want to deliver to the children, fostering in government shelters away from their parents.

The Muskaan caters to children living in expanded government shelters on the outskirts of cities. We deliver Happiness Kits, primarily based on providing groceries that render a child’s nutrition.

With a value kit of 800 INR that packs in from flour, spices, stationery, and hygiene essentials, this initiative has been helping thousands of kids manage their lives smoothly.

The Foundation has initiated this project to bridge the nutrition gap, boost immunity, hygiene, and learning gap while the parents of these kids struggle to make their ends meet.

A Game A Day Keeps The Despair Away

Children living in orphanages and shelter homes know that they don't have all a child with parents has. This makes them more susceptible to face depression and despair at a young age when instead they should be enjoying even the tiniest moments of their lives. Noting the social distance as a mandatory regime, our Muskaan program has delivered indoor games to help fight every destructive emotion and bond with each other.

Special Children Fighting Big Battles are the Heal Superheroes

Specially abled children feel the most aloof from this world. Bonding internally with other children makes it difficult for them in foster homes, the shelter cares, and orphanages. Through the Muskaan initiative, we help these kids forget their daily battles and instead vent their ability to keep going through indoor games tournaments. Each child is taught to be as competitive through these tournaments to battle more significant problems as their mature in this harsh world.

Building Children Up Is Easier Than Repairing Them As Adults

Developing healthy social skills, reaching developmental milestones, and dealing with problems are considered part of childhood mental health. Children must have good mental health to think, become more socially adept, and learn new skills. In addition, children who have good friends and receive positive encouragement from adults are more likely to develop self-esteem, confidence, and a positive emotional outlook in life. Muskaan provides regular psychological sessions to underprivileged children at shelters and orphanages.
