For these children from red light area, it was a unique Father’s Day

The project seeks to provide special learning experiences to children who are not able to access the best facilities that more affluent kids get.

Upon their return, the kids are beaming about their unique experience.

Last week, a group of 16 children from Delhi’s biggest red-light – GB Road – set out for a summer camp to the hills of Chakrata. For most of them who had not set foot outside the confines of brothels of GB Road, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It was their unique way to mark Father’s Day in their own way while the whole world celebrated by gifting greeting cards and merchandise to their fathers. To add to it, since most of these children have been disowned by their respective fathers or don’t know who their father is, the Father’s Day was dedicated to their mothers.
