All Bengal Women's Union

Children are a major part of the “home” created by ABWU. Team ABWU work incessantly for child protection and child education. Abandoned, abused or orphaned children are brought to our Home by government /non government help agencies. These children (sometimes infants) are provided with immediate shelter, security, healthcare, nutrition and trauma counseling. The children above the age of five are subsequently sent to our in-house nursery (Balwadi) or primary school according to their age. In accordance with the Right to Education Act, all the res ident girls receive formal education based on their individual capabilities. The children from nearby slums come to our nursery and primary school. These children not only get education here but also are served nutritious food during lunch hour. The children also participate in various extra-curricular activities viz. Music, Dance, Karate, Hockey, Dance Movement therapy, Computer,
