At Children Unbound Foundation (CUF), we believe that empowering a child means nurturing their entire ecosystem—home, school, health, and community. Our multi-dimensional projects are designed to tackle root causes of vulnerability such as poverty, gender inequality, poor health, and lack of education. Each initiative addresses specific needs while contributing to our broader vision of a safe, educated, and empowered generation.
Project Disha: Protecting Girls, Preventing Cancer
In underserved communities, awareness about women’s health is minimal, and preventive healthcare is rarely accessible. Project Disha bridges that gap.
- Cervical Cancer Awareness: Conducts workshops in schools and communities to educate adolescent girls and their families about cervical cancer, menstrual hygiene, and reproductive health.
- HPV Vaccination Drives: In collaboration with hospitals and health workers, CUF offers free or highly subsidized HPV vaccines to girls aged 9–14, helping prevent cervical cancer early.

Children need more than textbooks—they need safe, inspiring spaces to thrive. Project Samagra is CUF’s school transformation initiative.
- Holistic School Improvement: Upgrades physical infrastructure, classroom resources, sanitation facilities, and playgrounds.
- Child-Centered Learning Environment: Trains teachers and engages students through art, sports, mental well-being sessions, and inclusive learning techniques.
