Our 2026 Beneficiary: AVANI

This year’s beneficiary, AVANI, is an extraordinary organization based in Kolhapur, India, dedicated to transforming the lives of women and children through education, rehabilitation, and community empowerment.

Founded in 1994, AVANI protects girls from child labor, abuse, and early marriage, offering them safety, education, and the chance to rebuild their futures. Through its Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Family Reintegration Program, AVANI helps girls heal from trauma and reunite with stable, loving families whenever possible.

Today, AVANI supports 60 girls and has rescued and rehabilitated over 2,500 individuals. Each success story reflects the lasting impact of compassion and sustained partnership.
