VIJAYA ASHRAM /CHILDREN HOME Project

Why in the Kalyan?
Kalyan city has been grown rapidly most of migrated people and children are coming to Kalyan because Kalyan is the biggest railway junction more children run away from home and come to the Kalyan,Mumbai because Mumbai is the more attractive city. When they come to Mumbai they stay at the Kalyan railway station it is just 54 KM from Mumbai.
In Mumbai most of the NGO working among the street / children they have different projects and plan for them e.g. children home, day care center, night shelter, training centre, outreach etc. but in Kalyan no other NGO working specially with street /children. Before children reach to Mumbai they come to Kalyan because kalyan is biggest junction it is beginning of the Mumbai so we find most of the street children in the Kalyan.
Out of all these children most of the children run away from home. Few children are orphan because their parents are died due to sickness. Some children come from very poor family background all these children can not get food, shelter, clothes, hygiene, education and other basic needs that’s why WAY TRUE LIFE work among these children to provide their basic important needs.
