More than 37,000 young boys and girls live on the streets of Mumbai although it is a known fact that there are many more, since many of them have not even registered their births. They live in conditions of extreme poverty and uncertain health conditions.
STREET ANGELS FOUNDATION
Feeding the life and dreams of orphan homeless children and/or with difficult backgrounds in Mumbai
Welcome to the Street Angels Foundation, where our mission is to uplift the lives of marginalized communities in Mumbai and beyond. Our foundation is driven by a commitment to providing essential services and opportunities to those most in need, especially children and young adults who face extreme poverty and instability.
The Context
Mumbai, a bustling metropolis with a population of nearly 22 million, is home to vast disparities. Over half of its residents live in slums, lacking access to basic services and fundamental rights such as health care, housing, and education. Among them, more than 37,000 children live on the streets, enduring severe hardship and uncertain health conditions. Many of these children are not officially registered, further compounding their vulnerability.
Our Response
The Street Angels Foundation is dedicated to addressing these critical issues through various initiatives. Our flagship project, the Bombay to Barcelona Library Café, plays a pivotal role in this mission. This innovative project not only provides employment but also a stable home for young adults transitioning out of orphanages or off the streets. It offers them a crucial support system during a vulnerable phase of their lives, helping them build a future away from the streets.
Amin’s Library Café
Central to our approach is the Bombay to Barcelona Library Café, inspired by the remarkable story of Amin. Having experienced the harsh realities of street life, Amin's vision is to transform the lives of others through this café. It stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity, demonstrating that one person's determination can indeed change the world. Amin’s motto, “If I can, you can,” reflects his unwavering belief in the power of perseverance and community support.
Our Initiatives
Our primary activities include managing the Little Gurus Nest School, which provides high-quality education based on Montessori and Waldorf principles to underprivileged children. Additionally, we support the former street children employed at the Bombay to Barcelona Library Café, ensuring they receive ongoing care and opportunities for personal growth.
By supporting the Street Angels Foundation, you are contributing to a brighter, more equitable future for those who need it most. Together, we can make a lasting impact and transform lives for the better.
