More than half of India’s population is under the age of 25. Despite their large numbers, adolescents and youth continue to be disempowered and deprived of real-world opportunities and accurate information about their lives. At TYPF, we work to advance the rights of young people across the country by building their leadership capabilities and enabling them to advocate for their own rights. This equips them with the skills needed to negotiate with their families, access greater employment opportunities, and build better lives for themselves and their peers.
We’re committed to ensuring that all young people – especially those from marginalised and disadvantaged backgrounds who often cannot access mainstream avenues of leadership building – have increased access to rights and opportunities. Some of the communities we work with include Muslim and Dalit girls in Delhi and Rajasthan, the marine fisherfolk community in Kerala, and the tea plantation labourer community in Assam. Your donation directly enables the young people in these areas to access information about sexual and reproductive health and to advocate for their own rights!
If you would like to donate amounts larger than ₹10,000, please send an email using this template.
For Indian Citizens only
How much to donate?
By donating 1000 rupees, you will increase 10 young people’s access to accurate, reliable, and age-appropriate information on gender, sexuality, and health.
Recurring donations are more meaningful to us than a one-time donation – you can contribute to our cause by supporting our work more sustainably!
How are the donations utilised?
The majority of your donation – up to 60% of it – goes towards direct costs of our programmes that ensure access to information, services and opportunities to take leadership on ground for adolescents and youth. 30% of your donation goes towards staff time and training to ensure our work is also led by a young and professional team who can inspire the adolescents and youth with whom we work.
10% of your donation goes towards administrative costs to meet the tangible requirements of our projects and activities.

Access to abortion is conditional and regulated by complex legal restrictions. Despite the availability of safe and legal abortion in India, socio-cultural stigmas and taboos, bureaucratic delays and a general lack of knowledge around medical and legal information create much confusion for those who seek abortion.
Our work aims to destigmatise abortion seeking and provide technically correct and respectful information to abortion seekers and advocates. We advocate for a rights-based perspective to abortion and the right of all pregnant persons to make autonomous decisions around when, how, with whom and whether or not to get pregnant or give birth. We take up research, awareness campaigns as well as capacity strengthening of young people and service providers.
