India, a developing nation with a rapidly increasing economy, and growing technical advancements is an abode to 18 million street children, which is larger than anywhere in the world. Often, each of us experiences and witness these poor kids lying on the sidelines and roads near railway stations in torn-out clothes, unpredictable about their future and education. Mostly, they are seen as ‘invisible’ and completely deprived of their rights. It is a very serious socio-legal issue with regard to the development of a country, which comprises more than 1.3 billion people out of which half are the youth and adolescent population.

UPAY has been working since 2014 to bring these children into the mainstream by giving them the most powerful weapon of education.
