I-India’s mission is to provide care, love and development for children living on the streets of Jaipur. We strive to help as many children as possible and focus on those in most urgent need.
We assist children with their immediate challenges, such as homelessness, malnutrition and illness, while also developing their attitudes and skills so they can make a better future for themselves.

The temporary homes, vocational centres and counselling services are recent additions to our services. We would like to expand our thriving vocational training program further, and build more homes.
We are introducing a Monitoring and Evaluation process across all our programs to increase quality and efficiency — and increasing our fund-raising efforts to help as many street children as possible.
