Who Are We ? | Uplift Child & Community Trust

Uplift Child and Community Trust was founded in 2014 aiming at creating a safe and responsible society for the most vulnerable in our society.

We have been focusing on the development of a child working alongside schools and in the community level. Some of the areas that we have been drawn towards are child sexual abuse, female foeticide / infanticide, reproductive health, and community welfare activities. Uplift strives for transformational development in the life of an individual through sustainable education programs thereby empowering them for a better future.

PREVENTION OF FEMALE FOETICIDE/INFANTICDE: (Awareness program)

Working in the Salem Kalrayan hills, its objectives were aimed toward preventing female infanticide and foeticide and bringing about attitude changes with regards to the inequality of sexes. Uplift mobilized the community through women’s and youth groups, raised awareness about female infanticide and foeticide, provided necessary education and enabled the women to utilize their training and knowledge to address and overcome this problem in their communities. It also focuses on transforming these women from being beneficiaries to becoming benefactors in the community.

The women’s group and youth group activities revolved around open discussions of the underlying causes of female infanticide, and what could be done to prevent it.
