YTD Raised: £890.00Odanadi UK: Who we are Odanadi UK was set in 2008 by a group of British volunteers with a common interest in working together to combat human trafficking. Since our inception, we have successfully raised funds and awareness for our partner organisation in India and we are now proud to contribute 30% of Odanadi’s core running costs. In addition to our ever-expanding raft of UK activities, we also offer strategic and capacity building support to our sister organisation. Odanadi India: Fighting human trafficking, violence and exploitation Odanadi’s vision is to create a peoples’ movement against gender discrimination and human trafficking, and also works to combat social injustice more generally. Odanadi is a small organisation based in Mysore, southern India. Since the early 1990s, Odanadi has worked tirelessly to rescue and rehabilitate individuals who have been trafficked, prostituted, enslaved or abused. Odanadi offers them a home, counselling, an education and career opportunities, in addition to assisting with prosecutions against traffickers and advocating to law enforcement. But it doesnt stop there: Odanadi’s grassroots education, awareness and empowerment programmes prevent trafficking in some of the regions most at-risk communities. Every day in India, young people are lured away from their homes by criminal trafficking networks. In the hands of traffickers, children are sold, exploited and robbed of their childhoods. Many will end up on the brothels, on the streets and living on the margins of society. Over the past 20 years Odanadi has rescued more than 2,000 men, women and children; carried out over 60 raids and brought more than 137 traffickers to justice.

Nour - Domestic Violence
(UK, 1144213) Browse events
YTD Raised: £580.00Nour is charity which aims to tackle the silent, yet prevalent social issue of domestic violence (DV) in the Muslim community by using Islamic literature from both the Qur’an and the Prophetic teachings as a platform to refute and condemn DV. Our objectives as a charity are to open the lines of communication and facilitate the access between individuals and our team of Islamic, legal and professional advisors, so that they may receive counselling and advice which is sensitive to their faith. We also allocate clients with a caseworker to assist in their situation. We endeavour to eliminate the complacent attitude towards DV in Muslim communities by educating, creating awareness and campaigning against DV via seminars, community talks and workshops. Our final phase is to provide an aftercare package for the DV survivors and their children to include social and psychological support. Our philanthropic motivation and ambition for the outreach to victims of DV is rooted within the teachings of Islam, but Nour will be accessible for all and there will be no racial, religious or gender discrimination of DV victims. We hope that the culmination of the services that Nour provides will be a source of strength, support and solace for the survivors of DV.
