    Sensing the need of having a secured environment for the children living in the redlight area of the city; Swadhar IDWC started the Mohor project as a "day-shelter" for the children of women into prostitution in 1997. The day shelter was only for a few hours at the time of its inception, but it soon extended for almost the whole day. Later, in the year 2007, the problem of unavailability of night shelter for these children was addressed by the Mohor project by starting a 24x7 shelter home for these children. Since then, Swadhar IDWC- Mohor Project has been providing care, protection and survival for numerous children having severely harsh and grim backgrounds. Over the past several years, Mohor project has steadily extended help for providing the best possible for the children in need of a conducive and healthy environment for their overall development. There has been a steady growth in the scope of work of Mohor and its outreach has extended enormously and is now accommodating children from other adverse backgrounds who are in need of care and protection.

    Maharashtra

    In the year 2005, project ‘Rays of Hope’ was initiated in Pune, with the initial funding from ‘Save the Children Canada and UK’. Project Rays of Hope aims at an overall development of HIV infected and affected children while also addressing the physical, mental and other health issues arising out of starvation as well as several other social problems related to HIV/AIDS. Children under this project are from economically underprivileged strata of society and their chances of facing starvation are alarmingly high. One of the ways to counter this condition and help them to lead a normal healthy life is to lessen their starvation by ensuring that they are properly fed. With this in mind ROH started supplying protein rich groceries and nutritional supplements on a regular/ monthly basis. This has helped them to cope with their condition in a better manner.
