Brief Overview and Video
FORGOTTEN CHILDREN is a nonprofit organization dedicating to stopping child labor through education and microcredit. The founder, Francoise Remington, created this organization after she witnessed working children in factories in South India.
Our Projects currently in hill villages in Tamil Nadu, India, have three priorities: giving poor children the right to an education; allowing underprivileged women to generate income; and protecting the environment. Our students are former working children, who with our assistance are now back in school. Their mothers, Tribal and Dalit landless women, are organized in groups and are now able to generate income due to our microcredit loans.
