About Make A Difference

Make A Difference is a youth-driven, non-profit organization working to ensure better outcomes for children in orphanages and street shelters. MAD's vision is that even the most vulnerable children in society can realize equitable outcomes. We understand the most vulnerable children who either do not have a family to support them or children whose families are unable to provide a safe space for them to grow up in. Make A Difference focuses on providing these children with additional care and support systems to ensure better outcomes for their lives. MAD's mission is to ensure that all children in shelters across India can realize better/equitable outcomes within the next 25 years, by mobilizing the community, enabling the sector, empowering the child, and changing the ecosystem. As of today, Make a Difference reaches out to 4300 children living in 77 shelter homes in 23 cities in India, through a highly efficient fellow-managed volunteering model.
