In loving memory of Sheel Sagar Sharma

Seema Sharma is raising money for Child Action
In memory of Sheel Sharma
Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Child Action supports Mumbai’s street and slum children through education, and play‑based learning delivered by exceptional grassroots partners. We work with Doorstep School and the Opentree Foundation to bring mobile classrooms, foundational literacy, life‑skills and safe learning spaces to children who would otherwise be left behind. Our long‑term partnerships allow us to reach children living on construction sites, pavements and informal settlements, helping them build confidence, resilience and brighter futures. From School on Wheels to Foundational Play™, our programmes strengthen wellbeing, keep children in education and support girls to delay early marriage. Every child deserves a lift. Your support helps us bring learning, opportunity and hope to Mumbai’s most vulnerable children.

Story

Our wonderful Sheel was passionate about education, and supported countless young people to stand on their own feet through a high school and college education.

He was a firm believer that extending a helping hand to children living in underprivileged communities in India could make an enormous difference to the quality of life for individuals and their entire families. 

Your donations will continue his legacy. 

The children we have chosen to support in his memory belong to a tribal community living in the Sanjay Gandhi National Park in Mumbai. They are born into a life of child labour with no access to education or health provision. 

It costs £120/annum to sponsor one child to go to Doorstep School's School on Wheels - a donation of just £10/month provides access to numeracy, literacy and health education.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
