In the span of the last seven years, Ketto has grown to be India’s best crowdfunding platform. On the revolutionary online crowdfunding platform, contributions are made towards a broad spectrum of sustainable causes, which include medical crowdfunding, start-up crowdfunding, crowdfunding for children. There are plenty of excellent Ketto campaign reviews online, that speaks volume for the significant change the platform is being able to drive.

Children hold the key to our future. Therefore, to ensure a healthy world tomorrow, we also have to ensure that children get a better future. And for that to happen, each child on our planet needs to be a healthy, educated, happy child. However, the picture looks pretty grim in today’s world.

Chronic malnutrition affects 165 million children across the globe, 70 per cent of which belongs to Asia alone. It is impossible for a starving child to be happy. And how could a malnourished child, battered with illnesses and stunted physical and cognitive development, ever be able to get a decent education?

The future looks pretty bleak for these 165 million children. Unfortunately, this is not the only number that portrays the grim look of our future. There are plenty of other issues that harm a child’s growth and quality of life as well. Poverty and diseases remain two of the major causes. Besides, physical and sexual abuse also traumatize a child and adversely affect their development.

There are so many factors to tackle, to ensure a safe, bright future for our planet’s children. Despite India’s significant progress in addressing poverty, access to education, and HIV levels, the results have mainly been uneven. India’s children continue to face some of the harshest conditions anywhere in the world, with high malnutrition rates (stunting), child labour and forced begging, and childhood illnesses such as diarrheal disease. To raise awareness and collectively work towards improving the lives of our children and therefore, our future, we should come forward and do something for their wellbeing.

Many NGOs and individuals have joined hands with the Ketto community to foster the wellbeing of children by either ensuring they get healthy food, or desired education, or even developmental programmes through sports.

For instance, YUWA, an NGO based in Jharkhand raised funds on Ketto to stop the heinous crimes of human trafficking and child marriage. This NGO has been fighting these evils through education and sports since 2009. The girls supported by this NGO have been earning accolades in academics and sports, changing the perception and outlook of their communities. Due to crowdfunding, the cause got a lot of support and most importantly visibility. YUWA runs a football programme for over 450 girls, which won the revered Laureus Sport for Good Award in February 2019.

U & I, an NGO, through their Bridge The Gap programme reached out to 850 children, Through crowdfunding on Ketto U&I managed to teach English, Math and Science to these students. With a tutor-student ratio of 1:3, these at-risk children received the individual attention they need to succeed. Over Rs 7.3 lakhs was raised by 11 supporters.
