Salaam Baalak Trust (SBT) is an organization that provides support to street children in and around the railway station, crowded bus stops, business areas and slum areas of New Delhi. Through strategically
placed contact points, shelters and a health post, SBT has reached over 5,000 street children providing
them with clothes, food, health care, education, counselling, recreational activities, job skills training and job placements.
G.A.P Adventures supports Salaam Baalak City Walk
G.A.P Adventures travellers can now take part in an exciting city walk through the enchanting streets of
the inner city of Paharganj and the New Delhi railway station area led by one of the children from Salaam
Baalak Trust. This walk takes you on a journey through the back streets of Delhi with a child who has been
fully trained as a local guide. It’s a unique way of engaging G.A.P Adventures travellers in the lives of these children and provides an opportunity for young people to improve their communication and speaking
skills. All proceeds go directly to the Trust to support their programs. Duration: 2 hours
Planeterra Donation
We are raising funds to support SBT’s health post. A total of $8,700 USD is needed to fund the health post for an entire year, benefiting a minimum of 300 children. Funding will be used to cover the cost of medicines, diagnostics, and salaries for a doctor, health worker and peer educators.
