Working with the sole aim of helping child-beggars lead the normal lives they deserve, Generation Yuvaa NGO marks a decade of starting off at the grass-root level of this huge challenge.
It all started when the Founder of the NGO, Naresh, quit his plans of higher studies and dedicated his life to understanding and fighting the issues that endanger children’s future in the city. In the year 2007, fueled by his desire to give back to the society, Naresh along with Rakesh, founded the Welfare Society, Generation Yuvaa.
Noting that the most affected lot were the children begging on the streets, they decided to rehabilitate them through the NGO Generation Yuvaa. However noble the idea was, implementation was not easy. The kids resisted leaving their source of income, their parents harassed them and the society didn’t approve of having such delinquents staying nearby. But Generation Yuvaa’s core team persevered and today, nearly 5 years after the establishment of this welfare home, they are happy to have reduced the number of child beggars in the city by 80%.
