The Save Girl Child Foundation

The hand that rocks the cradle, the hand that nurtures the womb, the hand that nurtures the whole world; what an irony for providence to nip this pulse in the bud!

Tragically enough, this remains the horrific irony of the unfortunate girl child, even in today’s supposedly futuristic and gender-neutral society.

It is an oft-seen clipping in all the nooks of media even today. Female infants are still being found abandoned in trash by the numbers, while unborn fetuses are still being sniffed in the womb, despite the outcry for gender equality and law enforcement. 

The society lends a harsh hand to the girl child, starting even before birth and continuing right till the end of life, riddled with discrimination and prejudiced by traditions.

The Save Girl Child Foundation brings the world to you, from the eyes of the girl child, protected in ink, yet cowering in the real world, aware of the dangers to her dignity, independence and outright survival!

Charisma in the eye but remorse in the spirit; the Indian girl child, a portrait of dismay!

Save Girl Child is a humanitarian project run by The Organization for Eradication of Illiteracy and Poverty (OEIP).

The heavens weep in dismay… as another God of eve is sent to her early grave…

Every year in India, over 45.8 million girls experience horrendous gender discrimination, losing their precious lives to deep-rooted patriarchal, societal norms...

‌Education & Self Awareness

India, which has one third of the world's minor brides, is preparing to modify the rule that outlaws child marriage and will treat any future marriages involving children as unlawful/invalid.

The massive media outcry that occurs from time to time, along with legislative safeguards to protect them, has given Indian women the courage to speak up and fight against the pervasive and shameless abuses perpetrated against them.

Here’s a bird’s eye-view of the outcomes:

  • Emerging legal complaints sparked by the encouraging administrative action.
  • A significant reduction in foetal sexing, with the propensity to minimise the rising number of female infanticide cases
  • Opportunities to rectify imbalanced CSR rate.

Illiteracy – The Bane

A 2013 report by UNESCO found that 31 million girls of primary school age have never attended school.

Shockingly, one out of every four young women in developing countries had never completed their primary school education. A report suggests that educated women are more likely to get married later, survive childbirth, raise healthy kids, find work, and earn more money, among other positives.
