Egg for Child Campaign

Nutrition is the basic right of every child. Because their parents are extremely poor, these children are denied the right to food & shelter. With your support, they can start a new life & empower themselves.

What we do

We plan and support amazing projects that help change the lives of disadvantaged children and young people from across different regions of the world.
