LIFE ON LAND

Environmental sustainability is essential to addressing global challenges such as climate change, deforestation, and pollution. Child Help Foundation (CHF), an Indian non-governmental organization, actively integrates environmental sustainability into its social impact programs. By leveraging its resources and partnerships, CHF ensures that its interventions not only improve the well-being of individuals but also foster a positive relationship between communities and the environment.

Trees play a vital role in balancing the ecosystem, mitigating climate change, and promoting biodiversity. CHF has prioritized tree plantation in collaboration with local schools, corporate volunteers, and community groups. These initiatives often coincide with environmental events such as World Environment Day and Earth Day. The goal is not only to plant trees but also to educate people on the importance of preserving green cover.

In partnership with local municipalities and schools, CHF has planted over 50,000 trees across urban and rural landscapes in India. This initiative is also aligned with the government's Green India Mission, contributing to India’s afforestation goals. CHF focuses on native species of trees that are more resilient and better suited to local ecosystems. To celebrate the 14th Foundation Day of Child Help Foundation, more than 3,000 trees were planted by the volunteers of Child Help Foundation.

Beyond large-scale interventions, CHF encourages individuals to make environmentally friendly choices in their daily lives. Through community outreach programs, CHF educates people on small changes they can make to reduce their environmental impact like reducing plastic usage and climate change awareness in schools.

The plight of the voiceless strays is unimaginable. Many of them find it difficult to survive and end up losing their lives to hunger and thirst.

Many strays often scavenge for food in dustbins or garbage. CHF is aware of the problems faced by stray animals; hence, CHF conducts programmes to feed the strays to keep them healthy and away from many diseases.

CHF also mobilizes its volunteer force to conduct feeding drives for stray animals. It has also partnered with National Fertilizers Limited to establish Gaushalas in Bihar, which provides shelter to many cows.
