With campaigns across Delhi, Varanasi, Gorakhpur, Ghaziabad, Yamuna Nagar, and Mumbai, the NGO urges citizens to replace child labor with learning and literacy
New Delhi, — In a heartfelt and powerful campaign, Purva Disha Foundation, a leading charitable trust, has taken a bold stand against the grave issue of child labor, urging society to ensure that every child holds a pencil, not bricks. With their message—“Say NO to child labor. Say YES to education”—the Foundation has sparked a wave of awareness across cities like Gorakhpur, Ghaziabad, Yamuna Nagar, and Mumbai.
The image used in their latest campaign—featuring a young child burdened with bricks—symbolizes the harsh reality that still exists in many parts of the country. Through this stark visual and message, Purva Disha Foundation sends out a strong appeal to the public: Children deserve schools, not work sites.
Why Education is the Nation’s Backbone
Educating children is not just a moral obligation—it is the foundation of a strong, self-reliant nation. When children are educated, they grow into skilled, aware, and responsible citizens who can contribute to economic growth, innovation, and social stability. On the contrary, child labor robs them of their future and traps families in the cycle of poverty.
Without education, a large part of the population remains vulnerable to exploitation, unemployment, and social exclusion. But when children are given a chance to learn, the nation builds a generation that can lead with knowledge, ethics, and empowerment.
Public Responsibility: What Citizens Can Do
Purva Disha Foundation encourages every citizen to play their part in eliminating child labor and promoting education. Here are steps the public can take:
- Report child labor when witnessed in homes, businesses, or streets.
- Support local schools or sponsor a child’s education through verified organizations.
- Raise awareness in your neighborhood and among employers about the laws and rights of children.
- Volunteer time with NGOs and educational initiatives.
- Refuse to support businesses that employ underage children.
By making ethical choices and spreading awareness, every individual can help stop this injustice.
Purva Disha Foundation’s Role on Ground
With active operations in Gorakhpur, Ghaziabad, Yamuna Nagar, and Mumbai, Purva Disha Foundation is working tirelessly on the ground to support poor families, enroll children in schools, and provide basic educational resources. The NGO also conducts community workshops to educate parents about the long-term value of education over child labor.
Through street campaigns, social media drives, and local events, the Foundation is amplifying a simple but powerful truth: A child’s place is in the classroom, not the workplace.
The organization offers educational support, guidance, and encouragement to families in need, ensuring no child is left behind due to financial hardships. It continues to engage with volunteers, educators, and local authorities to strengthen its impact and widen its reach.
Purva Disha Foundation proves that positive change begins with purpose and action. As their campaign rightly highlights—the future of our nation lies in the hands of educated children, not those burdened by bricks. Let us stand together and give every child the right to learn, grow, and dream.
