Marvel Izara residential complex, as many more construction sites in Pune, employs migrant workers from across the country. While both parents are at work, their children are left unattended in a hazardous environment. Although the families stay in shacks provided by the constructors, parents cannot provide their children with an education, proper health care, a balanced diet or a minimum standard of living.
When we asked the parents of this site what they thought of having a Day Centre, they all responded with positivity. Not only were they happy that their children can now spend the day in a safe space away from the buildings, but that they will receive educational and recreational inputs as well as health care.
We are pleased to welcome 25 more children to our project for Migrant Children, which already caters to families in 15 construction sites.
