• rganization

founded to support disadvantaged families living in tents in the desert of Pushkar (Rajasthan - India). By means of Education, Employment and Primary Life Needs we help these families to escape the intergenerational cycle of poverty and improve their living standards. We send

poverty to the local school. In our project center 'the Blue House', we provide tuition and lunch after school. In addition, we employ the parents and supply basic life needs such as monthly food and shelter. To fund the project, we sell silver and products handmade by parents from Pushkar.
