In the month of April, 2016 we heard through a mutual friend that a funding organization called 'Railway Children' is looking for a partner organization to work in Katpadi railway station to rescue and rehabilitate run away children.
After learning about the nature of work being consistent with our vision and mission, we decided to apply. Towards the end of April, we were asked to make a presentation of our credentials and in the first week of May, we were told that the Hope House is one among the two shortlisted entities for due diligence. It was the most exhaustive vetting process that we had ever been through till date.

In the first week of June, we received a confirmation from Railway Children that the Hope House has been chosen as their partner.
We couldn't believe this for two reasons. First, the nature of the competition being high and second being the areas identified for improvement at the Hope House. When we asked for the reasons for choosing, railway children candidly shared their thoughts and said that they have seen the passion of the Hope House for children and willingness to learn to improve. We couldn't be more happier for being vetted by an external organization and being told of what we always knew about our strengths. Thank you RC for your trust and we'll work hard to improve the areas that needs to be strengthened.
There will be a team of 13 people who will be working round the clock seven days a week

Congratulations to The Hope House, Ruby and the team on this achievement. I am glad to hear about this initiative. Could you be able to share more details on the type service/care that you plan to provide? Are there other organizations in other parts of India? Who do we contact to use these services?
Good luck!!!
