Making a Real Difference

Dalit Solidarity has always reached out to those living at the fringes of society, to encourage and help educate them. We have built tuition centers for children who are traditionally forced to take up the family job of washing the dirty clothes in villages. They are known as “Dhobies” in India. They are Dalits among Dalits, segregated and isolated. These children have less opportunities to attend school as they are forced by parents to pick up their traditional job.

Tuition Center

The dhobies in general were driven very badly by their karma and destiny. Education is the key to bring  these children back to the  main stream of the society. Dalit Solidarity has helped them with a tuition center where these children would come and have special classes on English and Maths. Currently we have 130 children from twenty villages.
