Why Children?

Children are the foundation of our nation’s progress and the architects of our future. By investing in their well-being, education, and overall development today, we empower them to become the leaders, innovators, and changemakers of tomorrow. They are the future scientists, educators, athletes, policymakers, and visionaries who will shape the world. Nurturing their potential ensures a brighter, more prosperous, and compassionate society. When we uplift children, we uplift families, communities, and entire generations, paving the way for a more just, equitable, and thriving world.

Empowering Dreams, Transforming Lives

At Udd Chale Trust, we are dedicated to creating a future where every child, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to rise, learn, and lead. Our mission is to provide underprivileged children with access to quality education, healthcare, and life skills, ensuring that no child is held back due to financial or social constraints.

India’s Children: A Vital Yet Overlooked Demographic

With 472 million children, they constitute 40% of India’s population. Yet, their share in national investment remains disproportionately low. In the 2021-22 Union Budget, only 2.46% was allocated to child welfare, despite the National Plan of Action for Children recommending a budget of 5% of GDP. Alarmingly, for the past two years, this allocation has stagnated at just 0.43% of GDP.

Every action counts. It’s time to invest in our children, because they are the architects of a brighter tomorrow.
