Jesuit Migrants Service: Empowering Education, Health, and Well-being for Children

The Jesuit Migrants Service is a dedicated organization committed to uplifting the lives of inter and intra-state children through a holistic approach that spans education, health, legal support, and collaboration. This dynamic initiative provides a nurturing environment for school-going children, offering evening study centers and specialized site schools even in challenging construction and chamber settings. By focusing on education, the organization encourages enrollment in schools and diligently monitors each child’s progress up to higher secondary education, facilitating access to scholarships and motivating them towards higher learning.

Jesuit Migrants Service goes beyond academics, prioritizing the comprehensive well-being of children. The organization ensures that children have access to vital documents such as birth certificates, community certificates, and Aadhar cards, while also opening bank accounts and fostering awareness on health, hygiene, and moral ethics. In times of crises, such as calamities and pandemics, the organization steps in to provide relief, offering dry ration kits, basic facilities, and emotional support.

Collaboration and networking play a pivotal role in the Jesuit Migrants Service’s efforts. The organization establishes close ties with government officials and public sectors, working hand-in-hand with Child Welfare Committees to amplify its impact. Generously providing essential materials like writing supplies, uniforms, and games articles, Jesuit Migrants Service ensures that children are equipped not only for education but also for a well-rounded and enriching childhood.

Through its multifaceted approach encompassing education, health, legal advocacy, and collaboration, the Jesuit Migrants Service stands as a beacon of hope for inter and intra-state children, empowering them to reach their full potential, find dignity, and secure a brighter future.
