The Foundation provides all the facilities for the girls: a home to live in, formal education, professional training, medical care, nutrition, sports, music teaching, dance, computer training and other activities.
The Foundation also works in the medical area with a Children´s Health Centre which has a capacity of 50 beds, providing medical care to children, women and others in need, especially mentally and physically handicapped children. In the Health Centre other programmes have also been started, such as a tuberculosis clinic, an ophthalmologic clinic, a regular Out Door Patient clinic, a mobile clinic and a special cases programme where critical diseases such as heart operations, physical traumas, and orthopaedic problems are treated as they arise.
Each girl, as well as each programme, is supported by either an individual sponsor or company or institution to whom the Foundation provides regular information on the progress of the girl or programme; consequently a link is initiated between the sponsor and the beneficiary through the Reporting office of the Foundation.
The head office of the Foundation is located in the village Ghazipur a rural area of West Bengal State, in India. There are also offices in Spain, Italy and England work as fund raising agencies and co-ordinate the efforts of all different areas of the organisation.
