Empowering street-connected children one step at a time

Across the world, street-connected young people live on, work in or are at risk of the streets. These young people are stigmatised, mistreated and marginalised. Their voices are rarely heard.

What People Said...

DIA MIRZA

“SCCWC is not only about the game, but about children’s voice and their journey, and their call upon global leaders for the change they want.”

SOURAV GANGULY

“I know from my own experience that sports has the power to inspire and bring out our country’s untapped potential. This initiative helps provide a level playing field for children outside the boundary.”

KULDEEP YADAV

“I wish Team India lots of luck! My best wishes to the team as they embark on the journey to the Street Child Cricket World Cup - which acts as a medium to stump the invisibility of the street-connected children and gives them a platform to change the narrative.”

Dinesh Karthik

“We unite through our passion for Cricket. It is a sport that has transformative power. No matter what the result, it is important that you do your best, play your best, be king and know that you all are somebody in the world and are very very important.”

Harish's Story

Harish is a 14-year-old we have been working with for the past 5 years. While the initial years showed a massive impact on Harish’s learning and growth, in the next couple of years - he started to show signs of deviance, deteriorating performance in school, and violence.

In 2019, as our basketball intervention began, we were able to divert Harish’s curiosities and energy in a positive direction with the team sport. He quickly became the most dedicated and responsible child in the group. By re-establishing a relationship with the team and other verticals, he was also trying to perform better at school.
