Who We Are
- Jamghat -A Group of Street Children
- New Delhi, India
- It began with a street play for Prince Charles in 2003. 14 street children came together to perform a play on homelessness, coached by local theatre artists and funded by ActionAid India. The play was such a success that it travelled India and abroad for 3 months. Through this time, the 14 children found confidence in themselves and became a family, so at the end of 3 months, they refused to return to the streets. Instead Amit found them a home and Jamghat, a lively gathering, was born! Now Jamghat gives a home to 15 boys and a day care center to 50 street children around Jama Masjid. We continue using theatre to create awareness and to instill self confidence in the children. If you want to donate, volunteer, or visit the Jamghat home, please contact Amit Sinha at 9818705715 or mail us at jamghat@gmail.com
