Who We Are

Helping us Help Others

This year marks our 9th year of Naya Jeevan Foundation. When we first started in 2009 who knew we would continue to stay afloat. What started as a donation of her birthday gifts from our daughter Caleigh, towards charities that rescued girls from sex trafficking, we went on to registering a full fledged 501(c)3 Charitable Foundation, helping young girls trafficked into sexual slavery in India. Having established Naya Jeevan Foundation, we’ve received such phenomenal support over the last many years, thanks to you, family and friends but the need is constant.

Most people start something in the hopes of staying with it. We did too but like many other things, life has had its ups and downs. For all of us, Covid was an eye opener on so many levels. When the pandemic hit early 2020, it affected everything in its path including these girls trying to survive. Our goal at Naya Jeevan Foundation is to offer fundraising support to established, successful and worthy NGOs that are working hard, even risking their lives, to identify, rescue and rehabilitate young girls and women who are victims of human trafficking. For a little more than US$1,000, you can cover the cost of saving one life. From the investigation phase through repatriating them with their families or getting them jobs. And everything in between, including medical care, psychological counseling clothes, food and teaching them a trade. Please continue to help support the girls if and when you can. It would mean so much to us if you did. And for US taxpayers, all donations made through our site are fully tax deductible, with 100% of your donation going directly to the needy NGO.

These girls are trying very hard to sustain themselves through this Pandemic. They have so much potential and need all the support they can get. Here's your opportunity to help give those girls hope...that the skills they possess are valuable and that their hard work pays off. They have established a store on Instagram selling handmade products produced by the survivors. The products you see on Instagram are all taught at their in-house trainings and are skills they take with them wherever they go so they can have their own home businesses in the near future. A portion of the proceeds goes directly to the girls who make them. You can follow them on https://www.instagram.com/ekatra.store/.
