LittleBigHelp
LittleBigHelp works to create better opportunities for street children and children living in slum areas of Kolkata, India. We work to secure their basic human rights such as education, protection, basic health care, and nutrition- each and every day.
We cannot help everybody, but our belief is that everybody can help some. And your support will get us a long way!
Mission
We change your little help into a big help for people in need.
Vision
We cannot help everybody – but we can help some. And we do it!
Our Projects
LittleBigHelp runs a school in Salimar slum community where 135 children on a daily basis receive education and enjoy a hot meal for lunch. We also work with the local community, mainly the parents of the children, since it is crucial to our work that they understand and support our efforts to try and educate their children.
We run a Day Protection Centre (DPC) at Howrah Station for 20 boys who are living on the street and on the platforms of the station. The rough everyday lives of these young boys consist of collecting bottles and other goods left on the trains to sell and earn a few Rupees to survive.
We offer them a safe alternative to the perils of the street and the station with shelter, protection, education, food, medical care, and a place to simply just be a child. At night we also provide for a safe place for them to eat, sleep and relax.
An important value for LittleBigHelp is to keep administration costs at a minimum to ensure that the donations that we receive reach those who really need it.
”Nobody can help all, but everybody can help some.”
Thanks for your support. Love and good karma,
Lisbeth Johansen, Founder of LittleBigHelp
