WeLive Foundation (https://welivefoundation.org.in)
WeLive Foundation was formed to address the needs of young adults, who leave childcare institutions at the age of 18. Our purpose is to support them to live independently and to integrate with society.
WeLive Foundation offers a 3 – 5 year transition program called a Bridge Program, which is a full time residential program for care leavers that provides a place to stay, acts as a social security net, allows for an investment in their aspirational future, and builds their resilience and self-reliance. The Bridge Program helps ease these youngsters into the world with optimism, confidence, skills and means for a fulfilling, secure and meaningful life.
WeLive Foundation currently has 2 centres in Bengaluru with more than 50 young people as part of the program.
