Build dreams. Change lives.
Dreams
Empower a life
Even today, many children do not have access to food, education, a proper place to live or adequate care. As a result, they lack opportunities to build their own dreams and lives. If you want to support us in our efforts to change this in sustainably ways and to open up opportunities for as many children as possible, please donate if you can and share this pitch.
What should to come first for many children, especially the very small ones is a new, modified view and understanding on life, which many of them haven’t seen yet and don't know about it. Thanks to the loving care of the teachers and social-workers, kids of all ages can feel safe during their times of learning, playing and develop also their soft skills. In those experience in an uplifting environment, they can create and follow their own aspirations to embrace new perspectives.
Encouraged by mentors and way-showers, who often had to face the same difficulties they find themselves into right now and realize, what is now possible for them too. This makes the children even more eager to lern and understand more, while self- confidence and the strength to overcome upcoming hurdles by them selfs. During and after this time, they are able to build their own dream and make their own future. Otherwise this couldn't happen and they would be trapped in the circle of poverty, literation and exploitation.
Embedding the social community is a critical and highly important aspect. In order to ensure the respect of the villagers for the decision to educate kids in school, the questions and doubts of not only the parents but also of the community has to be answered and clarified. Convincing parents, family members and the community that literacy and equality are a benefit for their own family and community too, is essential for the success in the long-term. That is why the social workers remain in constant contact with the community and attending meetings, in wich meaningful decisions are made, issues are solved and important debates can take place.
This creates trust and the necessary basic understanding within the village community, which can open the way to education for the children. And even if the students later go to another school or learn a profession in another place, we stay in touch with the families. We stay on.
Mindset
Find more flow
Besides knowledge and skills, part of a proper education and development should also be the empowerment of a healthy mindset which promotes, among other attributes, a sense of self-determination, self-confidence and self-worth. Because for many children from marginalized communities, quality school education fails, because of the prevailing situation of illiteracy, socio-economic backwardness and centuries of old caste discrimination.
Especially children, coming from poor families, village-communities and often also lower casts, are facing mostly lots of exclusion and rejection. With flowmapping we support them in developing mental strength as well as a fast-forward attitude while remaining positive and kind at the same time.
The method flowmapping is a simple tool for independent and active change of inner perspectives and attitudes as well as outer situations in different areas of life. Since thoughts, feelings and convictions are connected with individual patterns of action and realigned in a linked context, the identification of possible show-stoppers, the localization of a new approach to action and solutions and ultimately the transformation can be facilitated.
Due to reservations and prejudices against a way of life next to old role models, children, especially girls, face many difficulties. Specifically when deciding to attend school and strive for a (more) independent, self-reliant life. Therefore, self-awareness becomes one of the most important requirements during and after attending a class.
For work with children, a social version of flowmapping offers an easy entry into meaningful and child-centred care. Furthermore, the interaction between teachers or social workers and the children as well as their parents can be improved very well to facilitate persuasion and motivation processes. This involves creating a map on a template, called an area map, that connects the status quo with the sweet spot, identifying and locating possible solutions. This can include challenges, complexes of issues and opportunities in an expanded and multi-layered overall picture that extends over several levels. External circumstances can be included, as well as individual overlays and unanswered questions or fears. The process-oriented result is the expectation of being able to address and solve internal and external challenges better than before due to individual new ways of acting and consideration processes.
An old mindset and patriarchic believe-patterns, which say staying in the village is the best thing to do, and especially girls should remain in a very old status quo of being uneducated at home until they they get married at a young age, drive many problems. Because ignoring or denying the voice, creativity and strength of girls and women within a society results in devastating implications. Not only on personal levels, but also for a whole region, as long as this is the predominant mindset.
Possibillities
Your resource hub
As resource hub, Pitch Page offers an interaction tool for mobilizing, activating and scaling different resources. The continuous procurement of which is often one of the biggest challenges for organizations and projects. Whether it is social projects, private initiatives or corporate goals a. For your project objective, whether on a local or global level, resources can be offered, found and brought together in new ways. Locally and globally. Both online and offline or combined. With a pitch, you improve the acquisition and allocation of goods, services, finances up to winning helping hands on site. Even for private initiatives and causes. A pitch, created on the hub can be published in two ways to trigger activity and engagement. As a stand alone pitch- webpage itself and in addition -optionally- on the resource hub, where pitches can be published and summarized in lists, to be found, shared and supported by other organizations and individuals directly on the hub. This way, projects, campaigns and related pitches can be segmented, promoted and disseminated according to target or interest groups.
Try the free price-plan. From sponsors and donors, to all kinds of supporters, internal staff and members, to new prospects, customers and team mates or stakeholders can be better reached, more purposefully informed and more dynamically mobilized.
The whole architecture is designed as a framework for different actors, tasks and requirements. Individuals and companies pursuing their own private, commercial or social projects or promoting external initiatives can use the toolkit, as can non-profit organizations, to constantly gain resources, reach and attention to fulfill their purposes. Or to interconnect and orchestrate the different persons, members or organizations their communicating with - according to their needs. As an interactive channel that provides continuous access to potential prospects and audiences, through referral levels the framework also drives more engagement among recipients. Those referral levels allows to additionally scale the scope throughout the readers circle of influence.
With interaction variables, third-party applications can be integrated directly in the pitch, allowing readers to react immediately and take corresponding actions such as bookings, donations or registrations right away. At the same time, the choice of transaction variables defines the options offered in a pitch for compensation. These can be monetary, time or exchange values, in order to be able to lend, exchange or sell goods, services or means. Also the combination of several transaction variables is possible. The use of Pitch Page does not require any special prior knowledge on the part of the creators or other responsible parties involved.

Story in a nutshell
India Child Care e.V.
The association India Child Care e.V. is committed to sustainably freeing the poorest children from the cycle of poverty, child labour, exploitation and severe slavery. We initiate, support and accompany projects with the goal of long-term independence.
About me
In 1979, I was born in South India and due to difficult family circumstances and social norms, I was abandoned in a hospital in Udupi. As I was very sick as an infant and de facto no one could provide the treatments needed for survival, the necessary supply of medicines and food to meet my needs did not materialize. In this situation, only due to a lack of resources, this would have meant my certain death before my first birthday. But things turned out differently.
At the same time, a couple in Germany was trying to adopt an Indian child. After all the formalities had been completed and the hospital could be informed that the costs would be covered, the necessary resources were provided by the future adoptive parents. Despite the risk of not being able to save the child even with the care made possible, they agreed to pay all costs in advance. With success. Following the treatments, the restored fitness for transport, months of waiting and further stopovers in different places, I was picked up and was able to start a new life in Germany at the age of nine months. Most children, however, do not have the luck of a comparable, saving new start. I would now like to make this turnaround possible for other children and families.It was also with this in mind that I founded the non-profit association India Child Care e.V. in Germany in 2022 and began to realize the idea of the resource hub.
Hybrid approach
The development and operation of the resource hub Pitch Page is realized by a separate (own) company. In order to be able to operate and secure the created infrastructures in the long term, also in the sense of India Child Care e.V., investments in intellectual property, own contents and parts of the (IT) infrastructure are realized and operated by a separate, external company. This hybrid approach enables the necessary long-term planning security, which remains independent of developments within the association. This applies in particular to the areas of copyrights, domains, IT infrastructure, data processing as well as virtual and physical hubs.
